PEEFACE. 



The purpose of the following work is to give speci- 
mens of the Lyric Poets of Greece, from the earliest 
down to the present times. In making the selection 
of the pieces, I have been guided by various con- 
siderations. In the case of the more ancient poets, 
except Pindar, I have given almost all the larger 
fragments which were intelligible, and which could 
be read in a school or college without much expla- 
nation ; but I have made no expurgations, and con- 
sequently have omitted several pieces, which had 
something objectionable in them, such as the best 
of Tyrtseus's warlike addresses. Where there were 
large materials to select from, I have sometimes 
chosen a poem because of its beauty ; sometimes 
because of its historical interest ; sometimes because 
it is representative of a large class of poems ; and 
sometimes because it is the best, or most conveni- 
ent, specimen of the poet which could be obtained. 

I have not confined myself to any definition of 
the term lyric. In the present day those poems 
are called lyric which express the subjective mainly; 
and as I think people may use any word they like, 



IV PREFACE. 

provided they clearly define its meaning, there 
can be no objection to this definition. Another 
idea of lyric poetry, which prevails very widely 
amongst those who have not strictly defined the 
term, is, that it is that kind of poetry which is set 
to music. The contents of this work correspond 
more nearly to such an idea, there being only a 
few poems in it which were not sung ; but still I 
do not profess to have kept to any definition, but 
to have selected from those poets from which I 
thought most people would have expected selections 
in such a book. 

In editing the lyrics of Ancient Greece, I have 
been indebted principally to Gaisford, Schneidewin, 
and Bergk. I have sometimes examined older 
editions; but almost invariably found that all 
readings of any consequence were contained in the 
more recent. The Neo-Hellenic poems I have 
taken from Miiller's edition of Fauriel's Ballads, 
Firmenich, Kind, and the Neos Uapvaaaos of 
Chantzeris. 

Most of the principles which I have followed in 
editing, it is unnecessary to mention, as they will 
be seen by a glance at the text. In regard to 
dialect, however, I have to state that I have 
followed the manuscripts, even when my opinion 
was adverse to them, except in a very few insigni- 
ficant cases. I think it almost impossible now to 
determine how much of Doric, iEolic, or other 
dialects ought to be restored to Melic poems. The 
general statements of Suidas or grammarians 
afford no help here, as we may see by a modern 



PREFACE. V 

illustration. Every one has heard it asserted that 
Burns wrote his poems in the Scottish language ; 
yet, if an Ahrens of a far distant future age, find- 
ing such statements, were to dress up all the poems 
of Burns in the dialect of that age, he would fall 
into a great mistake. Or again, if he were to meet 
with such a sentence as, " Thou minds me o' de- 
parted joys," were to infer that the second person 
singular present indicative active in Scottish always 
ended in s, and amend the corrupt passages accord- 
ing to this inference, he would make a rare edition 
of our national bard. Exactly in the same way 
have editors frequently dealt with Greek poems, 
introducing stiff unalterable laws, where there was 
a beautiful diversity, and determining matters 
which are now indeterminable. One example 
of restoration, however, the reader will find. I 
have attempted, with the help of Ahrens, Bergk, 
several other scholars, and .the grammarians, 
to give AlcaBus and Sappho in a genuine ^Eolic 
dress. 

In reference to the metrical arrangement of the 
Melic Poets, I have felt great difficulty. As part of 
the duty of an editor, I have read over very care- 
fully Gaisford's Hephaestion, Hermann on Metres, 
Boeckh's celebrated Dissertation DeMetrisPindari, 
and some ancient remarks on music ; but I confess 
that, as yet, this region seems to me full of diffi- 
culties and insoluble problems. Boeckh, I think, 
has most clearly proved that the lines ought never 
to end in the middle of a word ; and where I have 
divided words, it was because the verse would have 



VI PREFACE. 

been too long at any rate for one printed line, and 
so would have in some way to be extended to 
another. But Boeckh has not distinctly brought 
out the rhythm, and made it such that it is always 
pleasing to the ear. I allow that there are many- 
passages which flow with grace or grandeur ; but 
there are also many that come harshly and un- 
harmoniously. Then the application suggested 
by Boeckh of the Pindaric measures to all the 
remains of the Melic Poets, is a point which may 
be very safely doubted. And, moreover, we should 
have to take into consideration the influence of 
spoken accents on the musical ones. These no 
doubt had an influence, as we may infer from the 
fact of which Quinctilian informs us, that the Ro- 
mans were fond of introducing Greek names into 
their verse, because these frequently had the accent 
on the last syllable. These and many other things 
might be mentioned, which render this subject 
perplexing to us. Boeckh too has, in my opinion, 
been too rigid in demanding exact uniformity in 
the strophes and antistrophes. Surely, in such a 
poem, liberties must have been allowed and taken, 
far greater than those which modern editors per- 
mit in their editions ; and the MSS. seem to me to 
bear me out in this supposition.* 

As to accents, my impression is that it is really 
unnecessary for us to trouble ourselves with them 

* The reader will find some excellent remarks on English versifi- 
cation, in Mr Dallas's Poetics, where, pp. 186, 187, there are a few 
observations on the division of words and the arrangement of lines 
in English poetry, which are suggestive of what may have been the 
practice in Greek. 



PREFACE. Vll 

in poetry. If we could read according to them, 
of course they might be retained with some 
show of reason ; but in poetry that is impossible. 
I should make the same assertion of the JEolic 
accents, which are identical with the Latin ; for 
even in Virgil the musical is different from the 
spoken accent, as is demonstrated in Erasmus's 
celebrated dialogue of The Lion and the Bear, and 
in Professor Blackie's Rhythmical Declamation 
of the Ancients. Accents should be retained only 
where they mark a difference ; and in Melic poetry 
they might be used to indicate where the Editor 
thought the musical accent ought to be laid. Even 
in prose I should be inclined to discard them, 
unless from elementary books, because, to those 
who do not pronounce according to them they are 
useless; and to those who do, they prevent self- 
dependence, and thus render more difficult the 
acquisition of an accurate pronunciation. 

The Notes are principally occupied in defending 
the changes made in the text, or in proposing new 
readings or explanations. Perhaps I have been 
too bold in departing from recent editions ; but un- 
consciously one gets so fond of his own attempts 
that he fails to see their weak side. At the same 
time, I have often restored the reading of MSS. 
which recent editors have changed; and endeav- 
oured to bring out what I conceived to be their 
true sense. 

In the Biographical Notices, I have been in- 
debted principally to Bernhardy, and to Colonel 
Mure and Mr Philip Smith. Colonel Mure's work 



7111 PREFACE. 

is masterly; and Philip Smith's articles in Dr 
Smith's Dictionary, I deem the best on Greek sub- 
jects in the whole publication. The plan I took 
was, to read Bernhardy and examine all the sources 
indicated by him, in the best editions of the works 
I could get, to form my opinion, and then peruse 
Mure, Smith, Bode, Miiller, and others. I was at 
a loss how to condense sufficiently for my purpose ; 
and, instead of giving all the different opinions 
which have been formed on a subject, I have stated 
the result of my own inquiries, with the principal 
authorities both for and against me. The student 
should therefore be warned that throughout the 
whole of the Biographical Notices, he is not to 
accept any of my statements because they are in 
print, nor is he to fancy because he sees an author 
referred to at the end of a statement, that the 
author is all on my side ; but he must go to the 
source, and judge the evidence for himself. What 
I aim at is, not to make converts to any particular 
views, but to stir up manly, independent, and fear- 
less research. 

In conclusion, I have to return thanks to Pro- 
fessor Blackie for his valuable assistance, and for 
allowing me the free use of his collection of modern 
Greek books; also to Mr Giallias, of Corfu, who 
has suggested to me some of those translations in 
which I differ from Kind and other Neo-Hellenic 
writers.

BIOGRAPHICAL NOTICES 



LYEIC POETS, 



1. Greek writers affirm that there existed a series 
of Hellenic poets before the time of Homer. The 
principal of these were Orpheus, Amphion, Pam- 
phos, Musaeus, Eumolpus, Philammon, Linus, Olen, 
Olympus, and Phemonoe. Several of them are 
said to have belonged to Thrace, others to Boeotia 
or Attica, while Olen and Olympus were born on 
the western coast of Asia Minor, — the former in 
Lycia. the latter in Phrygia. 

Orpheus, according to the common account, was a 
son of the nymph Calliope and of Oeagrus. It is 
well known how he drew the woods after him ; how 
he charmed the infernal Powers, and brought his 
wife Eurydice up to the confines of earth ; how he 
helped the Argonauts through the greatest diffi- 
culties with his lyre; and how, ultimately, he 
perished by a cruel death, when his head, severed 
from his body, floated from the Hebrus, through 
the iEgean Sea down, to Lesbos. (The " Argonau- 
tica" contains most of the stories related of him. 
See also Pausan. ix. 30, 5.) 

Amphion was a son of Zeus, and received his 



X BIOGRAPHICAL NOTICES 

lyre from Hermes. Of him it is related that he 
raised the walls of Thebes by his melodious strains. 
(Apollod. lib. iii. 5, 5, and Horn. Odyss. xi. 260.) 

Pamphos, Musaaus, and Eumolpus had their resi- 
dence in Attica, and were highly honoured as 
priests. The Lycomidse and Eumolpidae were said 
in after ages to have some of their genuine pro- 
ductions in their possession. Eumolpus gave his 
name to the celebrated family of the Eumolpidse, 
who were respected and honoured as the directors 
of the Eleusinian mysteries. (Paus. i. 38, 3, & 22, 
7 ; Apollod. iii. 15, 4.) 

Philammon is said to have instituted musical con- 
tests at Delphi, or, according to another account, to 
have been the second to engage in the contest, 
Chrysothemis of Crete being the first. His son 
Thamyris was also a competitor in these contests. 
He is mentioned by Homer (Iliad, ii. 595), where a 
story is told of him to which Milton alludes. 

Linus was the inventor of many kinds of music ; 
he was killed in early youth, and dirges were sung 
over his grave. His name appears to be purely 
mythical, signifying a dirge, and he himself is one 
of a number of young men, such as Adonis, Bormus, 
Maneros, whose premature deaths were celebrated 
in many countries. (Apollod. i. 3, 2 ; see also Athen. 
xiv. pp. 619, 620.) 

The name of Bacis is also mythical, being de- 
rived from fidfo, and all kinds of ancient oracles 
are attributed to the poet. His oracular sayings in 
hexameter are quoted by Herodotus and Pausanias. 
(Herod, viii. 20 ; ix. 43 ; Paus. iv. 27, 2, &c.) * 

Phemonoe is the reputed inventor of the hex- 
ameter verse, and several poems, ascribed to her, 
are quoted by ancient writers. (Paus. x. 5, 4; 
Procl. Chrest. Gaisf. p. 337.) 

Olen and Olympus were both celebrated as 
musicians who used the flute. The word Olen is 
by some scholars supposed to mean flute, and the 



OF THE LYRIC POETS. XI 

invention of that instrument is attributed sometimes 
to Olen and sometimes to Olympus. (Herod, iv. 
33 ff. ; Pans. v. 7, 4 ; Suidas on Olympus ; Apol- 
lod. i. 4, 2.) 

2. There can be no hesitation in affirming that by 
far the greater part of what is told us with regard 
to these poets is purely mythical. The later Greeks 
explained the wonderful accounts which were cur- 
rent according to their fashion of interpreting 
traditions. They removed the difficulty which the 
marching of forests caused them, by supposing that, 
as in the fulfilment of the witch's prophecy in 
Macbeth, people holding branches in their hands, 
went forth to meet the minstrel and listen to his 
strains.* They explained the feat of Amphion by a 
similar sort of juggle. But such explanations stand 
on no foundation, and are contrary to the principles 
of sound criticism. The question still remains 
whether there is any truth in these traditions. 

It is not at all unlikely that Amphion and 
Thamyris, and some other poets who are mentioned 
by Homer, were real personages. It would be very 
marvellous if a poet, in the age in which the 
Homeric poems are generally believed to have been 
written, should construct his ballads out of purely 
fictitious matter, and it surely is not improbable 
that he would mention the names of real bards who 
preceded him or were his contemporaries. Of 
Amphion, however, Homer does not assert that he 
wrote hymns or poems of any kind. With regard 
to those not mentioned in Homer, it is scarcely 

* It is more probable that the Orphic story arose from a prosaic 
interpretation of poetic expressions, similar to the following lines 
which occur in Alexander Smith's Life-Drama :— 

" Songs heard in heaven by the breathless stars."— P. 45* 
or, 

" As nightingale embower' <1 in vernal leaves 
Pants out her gladness, the luxurious night, 
The moon and stars all hanging on her song, 
She pour'd her soul in music When .'-he ceas< 
The charmed woods and breezes silent stood 
As if all ear to catch her voice again."— P. 46. 



Xll BIOGRAPHICAL NOTICES 

possible to come to even a probable conclusion. 
The names of Linus, Bacis, Musseus, have a mythi- 
cal appearance, while in respect to the rest, except 
Orpheus, there is no evidence worth anything that 
can substantiate their existence. But- from the 
narratives regarding -these poets which were com- 
mon in later times, it may be inferred with some 
degree of probability, that there existed in Bceotia, 
at a very early period, several poets who united in 
them the functions- of priest and poet, and who 
composed hymns in honour of various gods, to be 
used in the celebration of religious rites or mys- 
teries. That they were not, however, long anterior 
to the time of Homer, may be inferred from the 
nature of the productions ascribed to them, and 
from the circumstance that Homer makes no refer- 
ence to the most celebrated of them. 

3. A difficulty in dealing with the history of 
these poets arises from the circumstance that many 
of them are called Thracians. It is altogether im- 
probable that the country, called Thrace in later 
times, is meant ; for other traditions, and the subse- 
quent character of the Thracians, forbid this sup- 
position. 

Some scholars have fixed on the country round 
Olympus as the home of these bards, for most of 
the occurrences narrated of Orpheus are connected 
with Pieria or some town of Thessaly. On the 
other hand, the idea that Thracians inhabited this 
district, spoke the Greek language, and became 
priests and bards to the Hellenes, is altogether un- 
likely; for they differed from the Greeks in lan- 
guage, character, and intellectual capacity. 

A district on the confines of Bceotia and Phocis 
has likewise been regarded as the Thrace meant, 
also with a good show of reason. Thucydides ex- 
pressly mentions a Thrace in Phocis (ii. 29) ; 
Thamyris, according to Pausanias (iv. 33, 4), was 
born in the neighbourhood of Parnassus; Bceotia 



OF THE LYRIC POETS. Xlli 

is mentioned as the birthplace of Amphion, and his 
name is connected with Thebes (Apollod. iii. 5, 6) ; 
these and like circumstances identify Bceotia with 
the country of these ante-Homeric poets. 

The word Thrace is simply a form of the ad- 
jective rpaxvs, and indicated the character of the 
region to which it was given as a name ; and it is 
not altogether improbable that there may have 
been two or three Thraces or rough regions : one 
in Thessaly and one in Phocis — both of them haunts 
of early poets.* 

4. Of all these poets, the one that demands most 
attention is Orpheus. His name occupied a very 
prominent position in Greek literature. He is first 
mentioned by Ibycus (fr. 9), who calls him " the 
renowned ; " then by Pindar (Pyth. iv. 177) ; and 
iEschylus (Agam. 1598-Hermann) ; and is frequently 
referred to by Euripides. Plato quotes him oftener 
than once without expressing a doubt in regard to 
the genuineness of his works ; and it is evident that 
the general opinion of the Greeks was in favour 
of his existence, and of the genuineness of at least 
some of his poems. Aristotle, however, accord- 
ing to Cicero (De. Nat. Deor. i. 38), denied that 
Orpheus ever existed ; but the mode in which 
Cicero introduces the statement does not warrant 
our laying too much stress on the assertion. 

Frequently coupled with Orpheus is Musseus 
(see Plato, Polit. ii. 364), one of whose genuine 
poems Pausanias believed to be extant in his time. 
Herodotus (vii. 6) informs us that Onomacritus 
was banished from Athens for interpolating the 
poems of Musseus with verses of his own ; but, not- 
withstanding this care, the general opinion of the 
best 'critics among the Greeks was, that most of 
the poems current under the names of Orpheus or 

* It is almost needless to remark that poets are passionately fond 
of rough or mountainous regions ; our Lake Poets being a notable 
instance. 

B 



XIV BIOGRAPHICAL NOTICES 

Musseus, were the fabrications of Onomacritus, 
Cercops, or some one else of the same age. And 
certainly there are now no genuine remains of 
them, except perhaps one or two lines quoted by 
Plato. 

5. The works attributed to Orpheus are Argo- 
nautica, Lithica, and Hymns. The Argonautica, 
as the name implies, has for its subject the Argo- 
nautic expedition, and contains some good lines, 
with plenty of doggrel. There is no reason for 
regarding it as a forgery ; for the writer may have 
put his ideas into the mouth of Orpheus, just as 
Bunsen makes Hippolytus defend himself. The 
Lithica gives an account of the virtues of stones, 
and perhaps is superior to the Argonautica in 
merit, though the subject is not very poetical. 
The date of these poems has been much disputed, 
(see Hermann's discussion of the matter in his 
edition of the Orphica) ; but there can be little 
doubt that the Orphic hymns, which alone properly 
belong to our department, were of very late origin, 
and are the productions of philosophers of the 
Alexandrian or K eo-Platonic school. (Taylor's 
Essay, Introductory to his Translation of the Or- 
phic Hymns, is worth reading to those who think 
that the Neo-Platonic Philosophy had elements of 
depth and grandeur about it, or to those who wish 
to tempt the abysses of Orphic theology.) 

Some scholars used to attribute the " Hero and 
Leander," which bears the name of Musseus, to the 
ancient bard ; but critics are now agreed that the 
poem is the work of a Musseus, a grammarian of 
the fourth or fifth century of the Christian era. 
It is decidedly the best poem of the period ; with 
more natural touches in it than one would have 
expected in such a hollow age, though not free 
from rhetoric and grand words. Poems based on 
it are numerous. The most notable in our own 
language are by Leigh Hunt and Hood. In the 



OF THE LYRIC POETS. XV 

version of the latter we have a strong Saxon and 
truly poetic mind treating an eastern story in a 
genuine northern style. 

6. The Homeric poems shew that the age, of 
which they give a picture, had plenty of lyrics. 
The only metre that was then known, if our evi- 
dence allows us to pronounce an opinion at all, was 
the hexameter, and consequently all poems and 
songs were written in this measure. Mention is 
made of the linus (II. xviii. 570), paeans (II. i. 473, 
&c), the hymenaeus (II. xviii. 492-495), and the 
threnus (II. xxiv. 720-722). In some cases we 
have specimens of the songs, and that of Demodocus 
(Odyss. viii. 266 ff.) is one of the richest and raci- 
est of popular ballads, and most characteristic of 
the Homeric age ; though fastidious critics, and men 
enamoured of an ideal rather than the real Homer, 
reject it. (See Miiller on the different kinds of 
songs mentioned in Homer, ch. in. p. 16 of his His- 
tory of Greek Literature.) 

7. The Homeric hymns belong to a much later 
date than the Homeric poems. Perhaps one, viz., 
that to Aphrodite, the best of the whole of them, 
may have been as early as either the Iliad or 
Odyssey, but all the rest have internal marks which 
bring them down near to the age of Feisistratus, 
some of them perhaps later than that. (See Mure on 
the Hymns, in his History of Greek Literature.) 

8. The lyric poets of Greece have been divided 
into three classes, — the Elegiac, the Iambic, and 
the Melic, according to the metres which they 
used. The function of the elegy was to express 
mournful sentiments;* that of the iambic was 
satire ; while melic measures were adapted for all 
the public and private occasions on which songs 
were sung. While there was thus a clear distinc- 

* I have here expressed the general opinion in regard to the elegy. 
My own view of the matter is opposed to the common theory. 



XVI BIOGRAPHICAL NOTICES 

tion between the objects of the different kinds of 
poetry, we find that the distinction was sometimes 
forgotten ; the elegy was used for warlike exhor- 
tations, the expression of convivial joys, or other 
such purposes ; and the iambus, though far more 
rarely, was employed in serious poetry. 

The melic answers more exactly to the common 
definition of lyric poetry, and was more especially 
connected with music, though all kinds were sung 
to musical accompaniments, with the exception of 
portions of gnomic poetry. (Procl. Chrest. in Gaisf. 
Heph. pp. 376, 379.) A knowledge of the history 
of Greek music is thus necessary, in some measure, 
to a comprehension of the history of Greek lyric 
poetry. Of Greek music there were three styles — • 
the Dorian, Phrygian, and Lydian. (See Boeckh's 
dissertation on the metres of Pindar in vol. i. of his 
edition of that poet.) The principal of the early 
musicians were Olympus (different from the mythi- 
cal), Terpander, Thaletas, and Sacadas. The im- 
provements came from Asia Minor, and in Greece 
were fostered by the Spartans.

his history. He was contemporary with Archilo- 
chus. Some, on insufficient evidence, regard him 
as older than that poet. Of the poem attributed 
to him, probably only the first four lines are his. 
About 700 B.C. 

10. Tyrtasus, son of Archimbrotus. (Bernhardy 
writes the name Archembrotus, according to* the 
analogy of such words.) The common version of 
his history is, that he was a native of Aphidnse, that 
he was a lame schoolmaster, and that, owing to an 
oracle, he was sent by the Athenians to help the 
Lacedaemonians in the second Messenian war. The 
whole of this story has been rejected by many 



OP THE LYRIC POETS. XV11 

modern scholars, and it has been maintained that 
Tyrtaeus was born and brought up a Spartan. But 
we have the express evidence of Plato (LL. i. 629), 
that he was an Athenian. The other parts of the 
story are generally said to be much later, occur- 
ring first in Pausanias (iv. 15, 3). This assertion 
may be doubted, for the most probable inference, 
from Strabo viii. p. 362, is, that they were related 
by Callisthenes and Philochorus. Strabo rejected 
the prevalent account, but on what seems to us in- 
sufficient grounds. The external evidence in favour 
of the tradition is good; there is nothing in the 
poems opposed to it; and the inferences drawn 
from the strangeness and unlikelihood of the events 
are not worth a straw, as truth is often much 
stranger than fiction. Tyrtasus wrote an elegiac 
poem called Eunomia, various vttoOtjkcu, and war- 
songs. (Two articles in Suidas.) Date rather un- 
certain; 680-660 b.c. See Grote's discussion of 
the date in his History. 

11. Mimnermus, (Mimermnus, Said.), called 
Ligystiades (see Bernhardy Grundr. ii. p. 349, 
and AvyvaardSr)? in Solon fr. 22), an elegiac poet 
and flute-player, was probably a native of Colophon 
(Strabo, xiv. p. 643 ; Procl. Chrest. in Gaisf. Heph. 
p. 379). The only circumstance of his life that is 
known is his love of a female flute-player, Nanno, 
whose name he put as a title to a collection of his 
elegies. In this affair he had some rivals ; but the 
want of evidence permits us only to guess that he 
was successful in his suit (Ath. xiii. p. 597 ; Her- 
mesianax in Ath. xiii. p. 598). He was contem- 
porary with Solon, and was in all probability an 
acquaintance of the lawgiver (Solon, fr. 22). In 
his poems we have the first instances of the plain- 
tive turn of the elegy, though he also uses it in 
describing scenes of war and warriors. About 
630 b.c. 

12. Solon, son of Euphorion or Execestides.

(probably two names of the same person), whose 
life belongs to the history of his country, was a 
native of Athens. He wrote elegiac and iambic 
poetry. Plato says that he commenced an epic called 
the Atlantis; but this statement, as well as the 
mythical world which was to be the subject of it, 
are doubtless fictions of Plato's wondrous imagina- 
tion (Plato, Timseus, p. 21 ; Critias, p. 108). He

himself,

(Lives in Plutarch and Diogenes Laertius ; Suidas ;

13. Most of those styled wise men also gave 
their thoughts a poetical form, and verses are 
attributed to Periander of Corinth (Suid.), Chilon 
of LacedsBmon (Diog. i. 68), Bias of Priene (Diog. 
i. 85), Pittacus of Mitylene (Diog. i. 79), and 
Cleobulus of Lindus (Diog. i. 93). It may be 
mentioned here, that Cleobulina, the daughter of 
Cleobulus, was famous for her poetic riddles — a 
kind of amusement of which the Greek ladies were 
particularly fond, and into which true poetry may 
sometimes be thrown, as any one may know who 
will read the riddles of Mackworth Praed. 

14. Phocylides of Miletus, a gnomic poet, of 
whose history nothing is known. Suidas asserts 
that he was a contemporary of Theognis (Suid. in 
voc). A poem of two hundred and seventeen lines, 
containing precepts on all points of morality, has 
come down under his name ; but it has been uni- 
versally rejected as spurious. It was most probably 
the production of an Alexandrian Jew. Some have 
incorrectly attributed the lines to one Naumachius, 
who is the author of verses styled ya^iiKa irapa<y- 
yeX/jLara, and who is also involved in complete 
obscurity. Others, as Bode, have regarded them 
as the production of a Christian of the third or 
fourth century. 



OF THE LYRIC POETS. XIX 

15. Theognis. Both the date and birthplace of 
this poet have been disputed ; but there seems no 
good reason for doubting that he was born in 
Megara, the capital of Megaris. Suidas indeed 
asserts that the Sicilian Megara was his native 
place, but this is a mistake (Harpocration in voc., 
and v. 783 of Theognis's Poems), arising from the 
circumstance that he was honoured with the citizen- 
ship of that town (Plato, LL. p. 630 ; see also the 
scholiast on this passage of Plato's, p. 511 in Tauch- 
nitz's edit, of the Laws). He belonged to an aris- 
tocratic family, and in the troubles which befell 
the aristocratic party, was expelled along with 
the rest, and travelled in Eubsea, Sicily, and else- 
where. 

All that we know of the history of Theognis is 
contained in his own verses, most of which relating- 
to himself are given in the Extracts. In reading 
these, it is necessary to remember that the terms 
KaXol, ayaOot, and iaOXoi, are used to designate 
the aristocrats ; Ka/coi and &ei\ol, the democrats, or 
people of low birth. 

The poems of Theognis have come down to us in 
a state of utter confusion, arranged according to no 
principle, and mixed up with one another, and 
with extracts from other poets. An attempt has 
been made by Weleker to separate the genuine 
from the spurious, and to arrange the epigrams ; 
not without considerable success. 

Some of the verses are addressed to Cyrnus, 
others to Polypaides; and it has been supposed 
that these are the same persons, Polypaides being 
the patronymic, and meaning " Son of Poly pais." 
Weleker is of a contrary opinion. 548 or 544 B.C. 
(For the political history of Megara at this time, 
with which it is necessary to be acquainted in order 
to understand the historical notices in Theognis, 
see Aristot. Pol. v. 4, 5; Ptut. Quaest. Gr. 18; 
Grote's History of Greece, vol. iii. p. 60, &c.)

16. In the period usually styled the Attic, elegiac 
writers were common; the elegiac measure being 
now used in the epigram, which had been brought 
into fashion by Simonides. Most of those, how- 
ever, of whom we have any epigrammatic remains, 
were more distinguished in other fields of literature, 
or in the history of their country. Among such 
may be named iEschylus, Sophocles, Euripides, Ion 
of Chios, Critias the tyrant, Plato, Aristotle, and 
Thucydides. Two elegiac lines are also attributed 
to Socrates, and he is said to have turned the 
fables of iEsop into verse, and written a hymn to 
Apollo. (Plato, Phsed. 60, D.) 

17. Of the other elegiac poets of the Attic 
period little is known. Dionysius the Brazen 
(XaXfcovs), Evenus of Paros, and Crates the Theban, 
are the principal of them. 

Dionysius flourished about 449 B.C. (Plut. Nic. v.), 
and was an orator as well as an elegiac poet. He 
sometimes began his elegies with a pentameter. 
(Athen. xiii. p. 602; see also Ath. xv. p. 669.) 

There seem to have been two Parian poets of 
the name of Evenus, but it was the younger one 
who was most famous (Harpocr. in voc). He is 
mentioned by Plato (Phsedr. pp. 60, 267; Apol. 
Socr. p. 20). He seems to have been a philosopher 
as well as a poet. 

Crates was also a philosopher, a cynic, and is 
more noted for his peculiar mode of life than for 
his poetry. His smaller poems were called iravyvia. 
See, for a long account of him, Diogenes Laertius, 
vi. 85-93, 96-98. About 328 b.c. 

18. In the Alexandrine era the cultivators of the 
epigram were exceedingly numerous, and many of 
their compositions have been preserved to us in the 
Greek Anthology. Callimachus and Eratosthenes 
(Suid.) were among the most successful, and the 
epigrams of Theocritus are also good. There were 
also Philetas of Cos, who lived in the time of Alex- 



OF THE LYRIC POETS. XXI 

ander the Great and Ptolemy the First (Suidas : 
see also iElian, Var. Hist. ix. 14), Hermesianax of 
Colophon, a friend of Philetas (Schol. Nic. Ther. 3) ; 
Alexander the iEtolian, also a contemporary of 
Philetas ; and Parthenius of Bithynia, who was 
among* the last of the Alexandrine epigrammatists, 
living in the time of the Roman Emperor Augustus. 
There was also an elegiac poet of the name of 
Phanocles, but his date is unknown ; the only hint 
with regard to it beino- a statement of Clemens 
Alexandrinus (Strom, vi. p. 750), that he imitated 
a saying of Demosthenes. Most of these writers 
were likewise grammarians. 

19. Callimachus was the son of Battus and Mes- 
atme, and belonged to the noble Cyrenean family 
of the Battiadse. He taught for a time in Eleusis, 
a suburb of Alexandria, whence he was called by 
Ptolemy Philadelphus to the museum. He died in 
the reign of Ptolemy Euergetes. The exact time 
when he flourished is disputed ; perhaps it may be 
stated at 260 B.C. 

Callimachus was very celebrated in his day as a 
writer both of prose and poetry. According to 
Suidas he wrote about eight hundred books ; many 
of his scholars are among the most illustrious of the 
Alexandrians, and his poems were imitated by the 
Latin poets, such as Catullus and Propertius. His 
remains consist of six hymns, of which one is not 
properly so called; a considerable number of epi- 
grams; and numerous fragments. None of them 
are worth much; the hymns are laboured, very 
learned, rather heavy, and with very few gleams 
of poetry. 

20. In the Alexandrine age collections of epigrams 
began to be formed ; and sometimes extracts from 
the lyric poets were included in them. These col- 
lections were generally called Anthologies (AvdoXo- 
ycai,), or Garlands (^recpavot). Among the earliest 
who devoted themselves to this kind of work were 



XXU BIOGRAPHICAL NOTICES 

Polemon (199 B.C.), several of whose books have 
been noticed by ancient writers (Athen. x. pp. 
436, 442; xiii. p. 574, &c.), Alcetas (Athen. 
xiii. p. 591), and Philochorus (Suid. s. v.) But 
these confined themselves to the collection of par- 
ticular classes of epigrams. Meleager was the 
first who made a general selection. He was fol- 
lowed by Philip of Thessalonica, Diogenianus, and 
one who does not deserve to be mentioned. Then 
came the kvkKos of Agathias, which was made up 
of the epigrams of his contemporaries and friends. 
In the ninth or tenth century (the date is uncertain), 
Constantinus Cephalas formed a new Anthology, 
drawing his materials principally from Meleager, 
Philip, and Agathias, but, at the same time, culling 
from the works of the early poets. Of this collec- 
tion there is but one manuscript, called the Vatican, 
of which no notice was taken, until Salmasius saw 
its value, and which has not been properly edited 
until recent times. The Anthology known to our 
early scholars was that of Maximus Planudes, who 
was a monk of the fourteenth century. It was 
formed from the work of Cephalas; but many 
epigrams, especially those that the monk deemed 
immoral, were suppressed ; and a few were added. 
Of the Planudean Anthology there are several 
manuscripts; and it has been frequently edited. 
(See Jacobs's Prolegomena, vol. vi. of Anthologia 
Grseca, or Philip Smith's Article on Planudes, in 
Dr Smith's Diction, of Biogr. and Myth.) 

21. The Greek Anthology contains very few 
pieces of genuine poetry ; but it is interesting, as 
giving us, in some measure, a picture of the customs 
and morality of polished society between the com- 
mencement of the Christian era and the sixth cen- 
tury. The serious part of the world at that time 
was earnestly striving to work out for itself a phi- 
losophy which should clear up the aims of life, and 
the destiny of man, and shew Christianity either to 



OF THE LYRIC POETS. XXill 

be true or false ; and, accordingly, the best minds 
were in death struggles with Gnostic schemes and 
Neo-Platonic philosophy, or were actively engaged 
in spreading the Christian religion. Those who 
betook themselves to poetry were, for the most 
part, literary pedants (grammarians, ypafifiaTtKol) 
who practised verse-making much in the way that 
it is practised in English schools, or dry lawyers 
(a^o\acTTiKo[) who employed some of their leisure 
hours in framing poetic trifles. There was no in- 
spiration ; for inspiration is an impossibility in men 
who, like most of the epigram writers, addicted 
themselves to low vices, and gloried in debasing 
passions. Many of the epigrams, however, are 
certainly neat in expression, and bring out the one 
idea which they are intended to convey with consider- 
able cleverness, though sometimes with abundance 
of conceits. We have also to remember that the 
epigram, like our sonnet, afforded room only for a 
particular kind of poetry. This is especially the 
case with epigrams on tombs, or epitaphs (see 
Wordsworth's Essay on Epitaphs, at the end of 
the " Excursion," or in the " Friend"); and some 
of these, viewed in connexion with the purpose for 
which they were written, particularly the Christian 
ones, are touching and beautiful. 

22. Of the collectors of epigrams, Meleager and 
Agathias are especially worthy of notice, as having 
also been themselves writers of good verses. 

Meleager, the son of Eucrates, was born at Gadara 
(Strabo, xvi. p. 1101 ; Meleager, Epigg. 126 and 
127 in Brunck), and seems to have been a contem- 
porary of Menippus, and a cynic. (See Strabo, as 
above, and compare Ath. iv. p. 157, with Ath. xi. 
p. 502.) He died in the island of Cos. (Scolion, 
in Vat. Cod., quoted by Jacobs, Proll. p. xxxviii.) 
His poetry has often been highly praised ; and cer- 
tainly some of his verses are among the best in 
the Anthology. Flourished about 60 B.C. 



XXIV BIOGRAPHICAL NOTICES 

23. Agathias was a native of Myrina, a town of 
^Eolic Asia, and was the son of Memnonius, a 
rhetorician, and Pericleia (Hist. Prooem, pp. 8, 9 ; 
Anth. Pal. vii. 552). His mother died at Constan- 
tinople when he was three years old. (Anth. Pal. 
loc. cit.) He studied at Alexandria; and in 554 
a.d. (Hist. ii. 16) returned to Constantinople, where 
he followed the profession of a lawyer, and gained 
the friendship of the celebrated men of his day, 
such as Paulus Silentiarius, and Macedonius the 
ex-consul. His poetical works were Daphniaca, or, 
a collection of love-songs, written in youth ; and 
his fcvfc\os. (Suidas, Life in Niebuhr's edition of 
Agathias's Libri Quinque Historiarum in Corp. 
Script. Byzant.) Born 537 a.d. The date of his 
death is uncertain; but Mebuhr shews that it is 
probable he died before 582 a.d. 

24. The majority of the writers of the Antho- 
logy are unknown individuals ; and with regard to 
others, what is known is unimportant and scanty. 
Mnasalcas of Sicyon, and Leonid as of Tarentum, 
were among the earliest and best. Alcaeus, the 
Messenian, is supposed to have flourished at 200 
B.C. Anti pater of Sidon (Cic. De Orat. iii. 50), and 
Philodemus, were contemporaries of Cicero, the 
former being rather older. Antipater of Thes- 
salonica, and Crinagoras of Mitylene, lived in the 
time of Augustus and Tiberius; Lucillius under 
Nero ; and Marcus Argentarius probably under 
Trajan. In the beginning of the fifth century lived 
Palladas, who has furnished a good number of sen- 
tentious epigrams. He was a grammarian, and 
very poor. Then come Agathias and his friends, 
who have been mentioned already. (Notices of all 
the writers of the Anthology, at the end of vol. xiii. 
of Jacobs's Greek Anthology.)

BUCOLIC POETS. 

25. If the name of Bucolic exactly described the 
works of the Bucolic poets, these would have had 
no connexion with lyric poetry. Bernhardy has 
correctly placed the Idyls among the productions 
of the comic poetry of the Dorians. But the re- 
mains of Theocritus and Bion contain many poems 
not bucolic ; and not one of the verses of Moschus 
has any reference to pastoral life. 

Theocritus was the son of Praxagoras and Phil- 
inna, though some writers, drawing an unwar- 
ranted inference from his first Idyl, made him the 
son of Simichus. (Epig. in p. 52 of this volume; 
Suidas ; and GeoKptrov yivos, generally placed at 
the beginning of his poems.) He flourished about 
280 b.c. The best of his poems is undoubtedly the 
^AhwviaCpvaai, in which he portrays the character 
of women to the life. Of Bion almost nothing is 
known but what Moschus has told us in his 'Ettl- 
rd(j)Lo<; B loovos. He was a native of Smyrna, wan- 
dered to Sicily, and died a violent death. His date 
is uncertain ; but it is inferred from Suidas (s. v. 
Mocrxps) that he was a contemporary of Theocritus. 
Moschus was a grammarian, and an acquaintance 
of the great critic Aristarchus. He was an ardent 
admirer and imitator of Bion. (Suidas.) 



IAMBIC POETS. 

26. Archilochus of Paros, son of Telesicles and 
Enipo. His mother was a slave. He emigrated 
from Paros to Thasos, and, according to some, was 
the leader of the colony. After that, he seems to 
have wandered about in various places, but ulti- 
mately returned to Paros, where he was killed in a 
battle with the Naxians. The Greeks regarded 
him as next to Homer in point of merit, and some 
c

even thought him equal.* Plato, in referring to 
one of the fables of the poet, speaks of the fox rod 
G-o^cordrov ^Ap^Cko^ov (Plat. Polit. ii. p. 365). 
The invention of various forms of poetry is attri- 
buted to him ; and he seems to have attempted all 
kinds of subjects, though the bent of his genius was 
decidedly satirical. His attacks on Lycambes and 
his daughters were very severe. The story, how- 
ever, that the daughters hanged themselves in con- 
sequence of them, is mentioned by no writer earlier 
than Horace, and in him it is implied, not stated. 
(See Epp. i. 19, 25.) The life, character, and 
poetry of Archilochus resemble, in very many 
points, those of our own Byron. (JElian, Yar. Hist, 
x. 13. For his death, see Suidas, and for the 
character of his poems, Quinct. x. 1, 59.) About 
700 b.c. 

27. Simonides, of Amorgos, or the Iambographer, 
was a native of Samos, and son of Crines. He led 
a colony to Amorgos, where he founded three cities. 
Till very lately he has been confounded with Sim- 
onides of Ceos, and his poems mixed up with those 
of his more celebrated namesake. He wrote princi- 
pally in Iambics. (Suidas in voc. ; also the latter 
part of the article under Simmias ought to be 
transferred to this Simonides.) 693 b.c. ; or per- 
haps 660 b.c. • 

28. Hipponax, of Ephesus, was the son of Pythes 
and Protis. He was expelled from his native place 
by the tyrants Athenagoras and Comas, and then 
took up his abode in Clazomense. Here he 
acquired fame by his attacks on Bupalis and 
Athenis,f two sculptors who offended the poet by 
making busts of him ; for he was ugly and small, 
though strong. He invented the choliambus and 
the parody, and wrote other kinds of poetry also. 

* In the Edinburgh Sculpture Gallery there is a cast of the bust 
iu which the heads of Homer and Archilochus are placed together. 
t Bernhardy calls this man Anthermus. 



OF THE LYRIC POETS. XXV11 

With him is frequently mentioned another Iambic 
poet, Ananius, of whom almost nothing is known. 
The date of Hipponax is variously given by ancient 
writers ; but it may be placed at about the latter 
half of the sixth century. (Suidas. For his appear- 
ance, Ath. xii. p. 552, and iElian, V. H. x. 6. For 
date, Plin. xxxvi. 4, 2.) 

29. There are several Iambic poets of whom 
almost nothing is known, and of whose poems we 
have only a few fragments. Among these, the 
most note-worthy are : — 

Diphilus (Schol. Pind. 01. x. 83), who was older 
than Eupolis, as is inferred from Schol. Aristoph. 
Clouds, 96. 

iEschrion, of Samos, who was an intimate friend 
of Aristotle, if the notice in Suidas refers to the 
Iambic poet from whom Athenaeus quotes. Called 
Samian in Ath. viii. 335. (Tzetz. Chil. viii. 406.) 

Phoenix, of Colophon. This Iambic poet nourished 
about 309 b.c. (Paus. i. 9, 8). Three interesting 
Choliambic fragments of his have come down to us. 

Parmenon, of Byzantium ; Hermias, of Curion ; 
and Critias, of Chios, probably belonged to the 
Alexandrine age ; as did Herodes, whom some have 
maintained to be a contemporary of Hipponax, on 
the authority of a verse of that poet. But the 
reading was incorrect. (Plin. Epp. iv. 3.) 



MELIC POETS. 

30. The various parts of a melic poem are verse, 
system, and strophe. Similar to the strophe were 
the anti-strophe and epode. (Heph. Gaisf. pp. 
129-132, and for the parts of the tragic choruses, 
see an interpolated chapter (ch. xii.) in Aristotle's 
Poetics.) 

31. The principal varieties of melic poetry were : 
the Paean, the Dithyramb, Hyporchem, Parthenia, 



XXVU1 BIOGRAPHICAL NOTICES 

Encomia, Epinicia, Paroenia, Scolia, Erotica, Epi- 
thalamia, Threnes, and Embateria. (Definitions of 
them in Procl. Chrest. Gaisf. p. 381 ; in Bernhardy, 
Grundriss, part second, p. 447 ; in Mure, vol. iii. 
book iii. ch. ii ; in Bode, and others.) 

32. Alcman was probably a native of Sardes ( Anth. 
Pal. vii. 19), though Suidas says he was a Laconian 
from Messoa. His father's name was either Damas 
or Titarus. He was at first a slave, but was eman- 
cipated by his master. (Heraclit. Pont. Politt. ii.) 
He was invited to Sparta (iElian, Var. Hist. xii. 50), 
and there spent most of his days, jovial and singing 
jovial songs, and in old age died of morbus pedicu- 
laris (Arist. H. A. v. 31). Flourished between 670 
and 630 b.c. 

33. Alcasus of Mitylene seems to have been born 
of a noble family, and along with his brother Anti- 
menidas, took a prominent part in the disputes 
which disturbed his native state. He used his pen 
and all his influence against Melanchrus, Myrsilus, 
and others, who aimed at the tyranny ; but it is 
probable he was actuated by a desire to acquire 
chief power for himself (Strabo, xiii. p. 617). He 
fought under Pittacus against Phrynon, an Athenian 
general, and in one of the engagements he threw 
away his arms (Strabo, xiii. p. 600 ; Herodot. v. 
95). When Pittacus was elected aesymnete by the 
Mitylenean people, Alcseus and his brother fled, and 
the poet poured forth his wit and his sarcasm 
against the new ruler (Strabo, i. 33 ; Aristot. Politt. 
iii. 10 ; Alcae. fr. 37). They afterwards attempted 
to deprive Pittacus of his power by force, but failed 
(Arist. loc. cit.) Pittacus nevertheless pardoned 
the poet (Diog. Laert. i. 76), and it is probable that 
he spent the rest of his days in peace. The sub- 
jects of Alcseus's muse are very varied; warlike, 
erotic, symposiac; but his most successful efforts 
were his ^Tao-Lcortfcd, poems that had reference to 
the civil broils of his native place. Horace has 



OF THE LYRIC POETS. XXIX 

many imitations of the poems of Alcasus. For their 
character, see Dionys. Hal. vett. script, cens. 2, 8 ; 
Quinctil. Inst. Orr. x. 1, 63, and the subjects of 
them in Hor. Carm. i. 32. About 611 b.c. 

34. Sappho was the daughter of Scamandrony- 
mus (Herodot. ii. 135) and Kleis (Suidas), and was 
born in Mitylene or Eresus. She was of noble 
family (inferred from Athen. x. 425). Her time 
seems to have been occupied in the management of 
an establishment for young ladies,* whom she 
taught all polite accomplishments, and several of 
whom are addressed in her poems. The writers of 
the middle comedy,f who made Sappho a stock 
character, gave rise to the story that she fell in love 
with a young man called Phaon, and that the un- 
fortunate damsel, being rejected, threw herself over 
the Leucadian rock (Strabo, x. p. 425). Phaon is 
doubtless a mythical character (see ./Elian, xii. 18), 
and the story of the Leucadian rock is, in Sappho's 
case, a fabrication, though some did perhaps throw 
themselves from it to cool their love, or drown it 
and themselves (Strabo, x. 425). The same writers 
found lovers for her in Archil ochus and Hipponax ; 
and Hermesianax, an elegiac poet, also gave her 
Anacreon for a suitor. A husband and a daughter 
were also bestowed on her (Suidas). Her character 
lias been justly vindicated by modern scholars 
(Welcker, especially) from the aspersions of the 
comic writers. The ancients spoke in the highest 
terms of her poetry, and Plato in an epigram (19 
Bergk) calls her the tenth muse (see Strabo, xiii. 



* The term " young lady " is rather an anachronism, the " lady " 
being altogether unknown in ancient times, according to the preval- 
ent opinion, but it very nearly conveys the idea intended. In an ar-

of London), it was maintained that there was only one lady in anti- 
quity, namely, Clytaemnestra ! 

t In the play of " Masks and Faces,' r there is an apposite instance 
of the mixture of historical and imaginary characters ; and those who 
know it, will easily see how worthless is any argument resting on 
dramatic evidence.

us are exquisite, revealing a warm heart and glow- 
ing imagination. She was acquainted with the

(I regard the epistle in the Heroides of Ovid as 
evidence of no worth in the history of Sappho.) 
About 600 b.c. 

35. Before Sappho, there was a poetess of the 
name of Megalostrata (Athen. xiii. p. 600) ; and 
two of Sappho's own scholars are known to have 
written poems ; Damophila (Philostr. Vit. Apoll. i. 
30) and Erinna. Erinna was a native of Telos, 
wrote a beautiful hexameter poem called " The 
Spindle," and died at the age of nineteen (Suidas, 
Anth. Pal. ix. 190). Eusebius brings Erinna down 
to about 350 B.C., and hence some have supposed 
the existence of two Erinnas; but Eusebius was 
probably led by wrong evidence to alter the com- 
mon date (Eustath. ad 11. ii. 711 ; Euseb. ap. 
Hieron. ad 01. 106). 

36. Stesichorus was born either in Metaurus, to 
which his parents belonged, or in Himera, whither 
they removed. His original name was Tisias, and 
his father's was most probably Euphemus, though 
five names are given, and among them Hesiod 
(Suid.). He lived to the age of eighty-five (Lu- 
cian Macr. 26), died at Catana and was buried 
there (Suid. ad irdvra oktco). The story of his 
blindness on account of his attacks on Helen, and 
the recovery of his sight on recantation, is well 
known (Pausan. iii. 19, 11, fr. 2, in this Selec- 
tion; Plat. Phsedr. p. 243). He joined epic sub- 
jects to lyric measures, as Southey has done in 



OF THE LYRIC POETS. XXXI 

his Thalaba and Curse of Kehama, but in this style 
of poetry he had been preceded by Xanthus, from 
whom he borrowed (Athen. xii. p. 513). He was 
the first, as far as we know, who related love tales 
in verse. He introduced the epode. Born about 
635 b.c, died about 554 b.c. 

37. Ibycus was the son of Phytius, and was born 
in Ehegium. He went to the court of Polycrates ; 
but nothing is known of his history, except the 
manner of his death. In some desert place near 
Corinth he was attacked by robbers, and slain. 
The poet had called on a flock of cranes which hap- 
pened to fly over, to be his avengers, and the story 
goes that they really were so ; for one of the mur- 
derers, who had gone to Corinth, observing a flock 
of cranes in the air, exclaimed, " Lo ! here are the 
avengers of Ibycus." The exclamation was heard, 
and the murderers were apprehended and punished. 
The truth of this story has been disputed, because, 
in an epigram (Anth. Pal. vii. 714) it is stated that 
he was buried at Rhegium. Though this unknown 
authority is insufficient of itself to condemn the tale, 
and though there is nothing absurd or unworthy of 
credit in it, yet it cannot be said to rest on good 
evidence, as the first mention made of it occurs in 
Antipater Sidonius (Anth. Pal. vii. 745). The 
poems of Ibycus were principally erotic. Some 
have tried to shew that he also attempted heroic 
subjects in lyric measures, like Stesichorus, but they 
have not been successful (Suidas). Schiller has a 
beautiful poem on the Cranes of Ibycus, in which, 
according to one form of the tale, he supposes the 
cranes to pass over the theatre. Flourished 540 
b.c. His date is not altogether certain. Suidas 
placed him a little earlier than the date here given. 

38. Anacreon was a native of Teos, from which 
place, while yet young, he emigrated, in 540 b.c, 
to Abdera (Strabo, xiv. p. 644.) The real name 
of Ins father is generally thought to have been 



XXXU BIOGRAPHICAL NOTICES 

Scythinus. It cannot have been long after his ar- 
rival in Abdera when he was invited to the court 
of Polycrates of Samos, where he remained for 
some time. (Strabo, xiv. p. 638, and Herodot. 
iii. 121.) From this place he removed to Athens, 
in 522 B.C., at the entreaty of Hipparchus (Pseud.- 
Plato, Hipparchus, p. 228 ; ^Elian, V. H. viii. 2), 
and there met Simonides and most of the cele- 
brated poets of the age. It is not certain where 
he died ; but some have supposed, from an epi- 
gram of Simonides (116, Bergk), that he was 
buried in Teos. The sentence, however, admits 
of another construction, though, if it did certainly 
state that he was buried in Teos, the authority 
would be good, since the objection urged by some, 
that such epigrammatic inscriptions are not to 
be depended on, cannot be sustained. He died 
at the age of eighty-five (Luc. Macr. 26). After 
his death, honours were paid to his memory by 
the Athenians and Teians ; and the epigrams in 
his praise are very numerous. Anacreon wrote 
hymns, love-songs, drinking-songs, iambics, and 
epigrams. 

The poems which used to be published under the 
name of Anacreon, now receive their proper title 
of Anacreontics, and were undoubtedly written by 
versifiers of a late age. A few may have been writ- 
ten before the Christian era, but the most may be 
safely placed in the fourth or fifth century after 
Christ, and some of them were probably much later 
than that. Almost all of them contain some idea 
taken from Anacreon, which is expanded according 
to the taste of the writer. 

39. Simonides, the son of Leoprepes, was born 
in Iulis, a town in the island of Ceos, in 556 B.C. 
(This date is inferred from one of his epigrams — 
148. Bergk.) He went to Athens at the invitation 
of Hipparchus (Pseud. - Plato, Hipparch. p. 228; 
Julian, V. H. viii. 2), and was an especial favourite 



OF THE LYRIC POETS. XXX111 

with the literary tyrant. Some time after the death 
of Hippias, he left Athens for Thessaly, where he 
made songs for the Thessalian princes, the Aleuads, 
and the Scopads. (Theocritus, xvi. 34 and ff. ; Cic. 
Da Orat. ii. 36.) He returned again to Athens, 
and lived there for a long time, on intimate terms 
with Themistocles and Pausanias (Plut. Them, v; 
Cic. Fin. ii. 32; ^Elian, V. H. ix. 41), and com- 
posed epigrams on the heroic warriors who fought 
in the many famous battles which then took place. 
He was also successful in an epigrammatic contest 
with JEschylus (Anon. Biog. of JEschylus in Schiitz, 
vol. iii. p. 4). He gained no less than fifty-six 
prizes (Epig. 147 Bergk). When he was more 
than eighty years old, he removed to Syracuse, and 
was highly honoured by Hiero. (See Xenophon's 
Hiero; Cic. De Nat. D. i. 22; Athen. xiv. 656; 
and Schol. Pind. Olymp. ii. 29.) He died in Sy- 
racuse, in 467 b.c. (Suid.) 

Simonides was perhaps the most popular of all 
the Greek lyric poets; and the stories which are 
told of his wise sayings, and of the care which the 
gods exercised over him, are very numerous. He 
is said, however, to have been somewhat fond of 
money (Aristoph. Pax 698 ; Plat. Rep. ii. p. 489 ; 
Arist. Rh. ii. 6) ; and for golden rewards he praised 
princes, contrary to truth (Plato, Protag. p. 346). 
Some, in recent times, have tried to defend him. 
Of the various remains left, we have encomia, 
epinicia, threni, hyporchems, elegies, and epigrams. 
One of his fragments, that on Danae, is exquisitely 
beautiful. John Sterling wrote an article on him 
(Sterling's Remains, by Hare). (Several articles 
in Suidas, s. v.) 

40. Pindar is the only lyric poet whose remains 
embrace a considerable number of complete poems. 
He is generally called a Theban, and may have been 
born in Thebes, though it is more probable that 
Cynoscephalae, in the Theban district, was his native 



XXXIV BIOGRAPHICAL NOTICES 

town. His father's name is variously given, but 
Daiphantus seems the correct one ; and his mother 
was called Cleidice. His genius for poetry was 
early discovered ; and he was sent to Athens, where 
he received instructions from Lasus of Hermione. 
On his return to Thebes, which took place before 
he reached his twentieth year, he received valuable 
help from the poetesses Mvrtis and Corinna, espe- 
cially the latter (Plut. Glor. Ath. p. 348; fr. 1 of Pin- 
dar's hymns). With these he also contended (Corinna 
fr. given in Selection) ; but Corinna vanquished him 
— a victory which Pausanias thought owing to her 
using the ^Eolic dialect, and to the beauty of her 
person (Paus. ix. 22, 3). He appears now to have 
made Thebes his home, but to have visited the fes- 
tivals frequently. He was highly honoured by 
Alexander of Macedon, Arcesilas of Cyrene, and 
Hiero of Syracuse. At the court of Hiero he lived 
for a few years, but probably did not like the place, 
owing to his contempt of the mean practices of 
Simonides, and the calumnies raised against him by 
his rival, Bacchylides. Various states of Greece, 
among these Athens and Rhodes, paid him high 
honours; and statues were erected to him, and rich 
rewards bestowed on him. He died a natural 
death, at the age of eighty, probably in Argos. 
Pindar was married, perhaps twice, and had a son, 
Daiphantus, and two daughters, Protomache and 
Eumetis. 

His poems were anciently arranged into hymns, 
paeans, dithyrambs, parthenia, hyporchems, en- 
comia, threnes, scolia, and epinicia (see Hor. Carm. 
lib. iv., c. ii. 10 seqq.) The Epinicia formed 
four boc ks, the whole of which we possess, except 
a few leaves of the Isthmia. They shew a genuine 
poet, of great fervour, truthful and sincere in all 
his sayings, and deeply religious. Indeed, it is this 
last feature of the poems that shines out above all 
the rest; and accordingly his treatment of the 



OF THE LYRIC POETS. XXXV 

myths is peculiarly interesting to the student of 
mythology. (See Ott. Miiller's Remarks in his 
Prolegomena zu einer wissen. Mythol. p. 87.) Born 
522 b.c, and died 442. 

The authorities for the life of Pindar are some 
prose and poetical lives, one by Thomas Magister, 
and the others probably by late writers. They are 
prefixed to Boecklfs edition of the Scolia, and may 
be found in Donaldson's Pindar. Another life has 
recently been edited, first by Tafel, and then in the 
most recent editions of Pindar ; and also in Wester- 
mann's Vit. Script. Grsec. Minores. 

41. The poetesses Corinna and Myrtis have 
been mentioned already in the account of Pindar. 
Several fragments remain of the poems of Corinna. 
She was the daughter of Achelodorus and Procra- 
tia, and is said to have gained five victories in poetic 
contests. She wrote epigrams and melic poetry in 
the Boeotian dialect. (Suidas ; also JElian, V. H. xiii. 
24, whose story, however, is regarded as false.) 

About 510 b.c. flourished Telesilla, of Argos, who 
was as much celebrated for her valour as for her 
poetry (Plut. De Virt. Mul. p. 245 ; Pausan. ii. 20, 
8). The story, however, told by these writers of 
her expelling the Spartans has been justly called 
in question ; for the evidence in favour of it is late, 
and the silence of Herodotus in a particular account 
of the Spartan expedition is extraordinary, if he 
had heard of Telesilla's exploits (Herod, vi. 76-83). 
She wrote hymns to different gods, but little is 
known of her poetry. (Art. in Suidas.) 

About 450 b.c. flourished another poetess, Prax- 
illa, of Sicyon, who was famed for her scolia. 
Nothing is known of her history. In addition to 
scolia. she wrote hymns and dithyrambs. (Prov. 
Coisl. 248 ; Heph. p. 22.) 

Here may be mentioned also another poetess, 
Melinno, of whom likewise nothing is known. She 
is the writer of the Ode to Borne, commonly attri- 



XXXVI BIOGRAPHICAL NOTICES 

buted to Erinna. Schneidewin conjectures that she 
was a native of Locri Epizephyrii, and that the Ode 
to Rome was written in the year of the city 469, 
on the occasion of the Romans getting possession 
of Locri, which was then held by the soldiers of 
Pyrrhus. (Liv. ix, 16 ; see also Anth. Pal. vi. 353.) 
This date is evidently too early. 

42. Timocreon, of Rhodes, is called an epic, a 
comic, and a melic poet. The last is the proper 
designation. He was an athlete, and engaged in 
the pentathlon, and was notorious as an extraor- 
dinary eater. (Epigr. by Simonides, p. 84 of this 
Selection ; Ath. x. pp. 415, 416.) He wrote poems 
against Themistocles, and was a bitter antagonist of 
Simonides. At one time of his life he is supposed 
to have joined the Persians (Athen. loc. cit., and 
fr. 3 of his poems.) Some have inferred from the 
epigram of Simonides that Timocreon died before 
that poet ; but the inference is unfair ; comp. Burns's 
epigram on Captain Grose. The remark of Ath- 
enseus that the epigram was on his tomb, must be 
regarded as a careless mistake. He wrote iambics, 
scolia, and epigrams. (Suidas ; Plut. Them, xxi ; 
Schol. Aristoph. Acharn. 532.) 

43. Bacchylides was the nephew of Simonides 
(Strabo, x. p. 486), and a native of Iulis. His 
father's name is variously given as Medon (Suid.), 
Meilon (Epigr. in Boeckh's Scholl. Pind. p. 8, or 
Donaldson's Pind. p. xlix.), and Meidylus (Et. Mag. 
p. 582, 20). He was at the court of Hiero along 
with his uncle, and was there a rival of Pindar 
(jElian, V. H. iv. 15 ; Scholl. to Pind. 01. ii. 87, 
Pyth. ii. 53). He travelled also in Peloponnesus 
(Plut. de. Exil. p. 606). Of his death we know 
nothing. 

He wrote epinicia, hymns, paeans, dithyrambs, 
wine and love-songs, hyporchems, and epigrams. 
Flourished about 470 b.c. 

44. Several poets, especially in the Attic age, 



OF THE LYRIC POETS. XXXV1L 

devoted themselves to the dithyramb. Among the 
earliest of them were Cydias, Lamprocles, and per- 
haps Licymnius ; but of the history of these poets we 
are almost entirely ignorant. Of Lasus of Her- 
mione, and of Pratinas, two of the most distin- 
guished dithyrambic poets, more is known. The 
former was the instructor of Pindar, and founded 
dithyrambic contests. The latter is celebrated as 
the originator of satyr plays, and in his time stood 
next to JEschylus as a tragedian. 

45. Diagoras, of Melos, son of Teleclydes or 
Teleclytus, was a melic poet, but is more celebrated 
as a philosopher. He was termed Atheist by the 
Greeks, but this word as used by them meant 
nothing more than that he was antagonistic to the 
received religion — a sense in which it was also 
applied to the Christians. He was condemned by 
the Athenians for impiety, left Athens, and died in 
Corinth. Some writers have tried to find political 
causes for the persecution to which he was subjected; 
without good reason, for there can be no doubt 
that the Athenians were above all Greeks the most 
bigoted, as they were the most superstitious or 
religious, and that they would be most ready to 
persecute one who, like Diagoras or Socrates, 
sought to change the prevalent creed. (See Mure's 
Hist, of Gr. Lit. vol. iv. p. 520.) His poems were 
paeans, encomia, and perhaps dithyrambs. (Suidas ; 
Scholl. on Arist. Frogs, 323, Birds, 1073). 411 
B.C. is the date of his accusation. 

46. Melanippicles. Suidas mentions two of the 
name of Melanippides, and there really may have 
been two, though, owing to Suidas's careless prac- 
tice of multiplying individuals of the same name, no 
dependence can be placed on his statements. Mel- 
anippides, called the younger by Suidas, lived for 
a time at the court of Perdiccas, and there died. 
He was among the first to introduce those changes 
into the music of Greece which were lashed by 

D 



XXXV1U BIOGRAPHICAL NOTICES 

Aristophanes, and men of a severer school, as 
worthless and licentious innovations. (Suidas; see 
also Xen. Mem. i. 4, 3.) Flourished about 420 B.C., 
or perhaps a little earlier. 

47. Philoxenus, of Cythera, was the son of 
Eulytides, and a disciple of Melanippides. He was 
born in 435 b.c. His history is confounded with 
that of another Philoxenus, a Leucadian, and a 
parasite, who was contemporary. It may be 
affirmed, however, with certainty, that he was in 
his early days a slave; that he left his native 
place, and lived for some time in Sicily with Diony- 
sius the tyrant ; and that, displeasing his patron, 
he was thrown into prison, from which he was no 
sooner released than he bade farewell to the island. 
His death may have taken place in Ephesus, as 
Suidas asserts ; but this point is disputed. He died 
at the age of fifty-five (Mar. Par. Ep. 70). 

He was one of the best of dithyrambic poets (see 
Antiphanes in Ath. xiv. p. 643). The names of the 
pieces of which we have fragments are, the Deipnon 
and the Cyclops. He wrote epigrams also. (Suid. 
s. v. and <f)iXot;evov rypafifidriov.) 

48. Timotheus, of Miletus, the son of Thersander, 
as a dithyrambic poet and composer of music, 
attained a celebrity as great, if not greater, than 
that of Philoxenus. Little is known of his life. He 
was born in 446 B.C., and died in 357 B.C. (Mar. 
Par. Ep. 77). He was an intimate friend of Euri- 
pides. At some time of his life he visited Sparta 
(Pausan. hi. 12, 8), and died in Macedonia, accord- 
ing to Stephanus of Byzantium, v. MiXtjtos. He 
wrote dithyrambs, hymns, paeans, and various 
other forms of lyric poetry. He also added an 
eleventh string to the lyre. (Pa us. 1. c. ; Suidas ; 
Alex. Mto\. in Macrob. Saturn, v. 22, or fr. 2 in 
Schneidewin.) 

49. Telestes and Polyidus were contemporaries 
of Philoxenus and Timotheus, and were nearly 



OF THE LYEIC POETS. XXXIX 

equally famous in dithyrambic poetry (Diod. xiv. 
46). Telestes belonged to Selinus. The name of 
his poems are, Argo, Asclepius, and a hymenaeus. 
(Suidas.) Of the poetry of Polyidus no fragment 
has come down to us. One of his scholars once 
conquered Timotheus. (Athen. viii. p. 352.) 

50. It may be remarked here that what is called 
the tragedy of the Greeks had a strong lyric 
element in it, and that some of the first lvrics of 
the Greeks are to be found in their dramas. Those 
of Euripides, especially, abound in exquisite songs, 
which, like some in the " Duenna" of Sheridan, or the 
" Beggar's Opera" of Gay, among us, became popu- 
lar, and were sung on festive occasions. This remark 
is equally true of the comic poets ; and some of the 
lyrics of Aristophanes, who, like our own Hood, 
had a vast depth of seriousness at the bottom of his 
jokes, are exquisite, full of vivacity, and sometimes, 
as in the choral ode on ancient manners in the Clouds, 
rising to the grandest poetry. (On this subject see 
Prof. Blackie's Essay on Greek Tragedy, in the 
first vol. of his translation of iEschylus.) 

51. After the Attic age, melic poetry was little 
cultivated. Almost the only note-worthy melic 
efforts are the hymns of Dionysius and Mesomedes, 
given in this Selection. It is not certain which 
of the numerous persons of the name of Dionysius 
mentioned in ancient writers is the author of the 
hymn. Jacobs supposes him to be of Halicarnas- 
sus, and that he lived in the reign of Hadrian ; 
while Fabricius attributed it to a Dionysius of An- 
tioch, who belonged to the fourth century after the 
Christian era. Mesomedes was a Cretan, and a 
freedman of the Emperor Hadrian (Suidas). 

CHRISTIAN POETS. 

52. St Paul makes mention not only of psalms, 
but of hymns and odes (Eph. v. 19 ; Col. iii. 16) ; so 



xl BIOGRAPHICAL NOTICES 

that in his time the Christians had begun to pour 
forth their feelings in songs of their own. Anti- 
phonal singing is mentioned in the celebrated letter 
of Pliny (Epp. x. 97) ; and writers after him that 
refer to the service of the Church, allude to this 
part of the worship. 

The first specimen of a Greek Christian hymn, 
as far as I know, is the psalm of the Naassenes or 
Nahasenes, given in the recently found book of 
Hippolytus, p. 122. It is written, as the editor 
Emmanuel Miller remarks, in logacedic anapaBstics ; 
but it is in such a corrupt state, and so little is 
known of the doctrines of the sect, that not much 
sense can be made out of it. Perhaps there was 
never much sense in it. 

The next specimens we have, are attributed to 
Clemens Alexandrinus, and are given in this Selec- 
tion. Several Christian poems are also published 
in the Anthology ; and a whole book is devoted to 
the epigrams of the celebrated Gregory, of Nazi- 
anzum, who was also the author of the XpLo-rbs 
irda'xcDv, a, famous tragedy, mentioned by Milton in 
his Preface to Samson Agonistes. 

The principal hymn writers to the Christian 
Church were Synesius and Cosmas. Synesius, of 
Cyrene, flourished in the commencement of the fifth 
century, and Cosmas in the eighth century. The 
hymns of Cosmas, the whole of which have not yet 
been published, are not written in metre ; and this 
seems to have been the case with almost all the 
hymns of the ancient Greek Church. In the ser- 
vices of the present Greek Church, hymns are still 
used, but they are not metrical. A kind of rhythm 
is often distinguishable in them, sometimes very 
clearly, as in the specimen headed oIko$ 3 in this 
Selection. 



OP THE LYRIC POETS. xli 



NEO-HELLENIC POETS. 

53. The first Neo-Hellenic poet of whom we 
know anything, is Theodorus Prodromus, who, in 
the twelfth century, wrote verses both in ancient 
and modern Greek. One of his ancient Greek 
odes is given in p. 98 of this Selection. Korais in 
his "Arcucra, has published a specimen of his Neo- 
Hellenic poems ; but the opinion of him which we 
form from this production, is not high. 

In 1627, Nicolaos Drimiticos wrote his " Fair 
Shepherdess ; " a poem of considerable power, with 
passages here and there beautiful and touching. 

In 1824, Fauriel made his celebrated collection 
of the Modern Greek ballads. Like other popular 
poems, most of them were written while the facts 
which they narrate excited the interest of the 
people, that is, immediately on their taking place. 
They relate, for the most part, to the Klephts, who 
lived in independence on their native hills, success- 
fully resisting every effort of the infidel Turks to 
subdue them, and ultimately coming forth to give 
the most effective aid to the late Greek revolution. 

In recent times, the lyric poetry of the Greeks 
has flowed out in copious streams — perhaps far 
too copious. At the head we must place the 
patriot Rhigas, a noble man, animated by an in- 
tense love of freedom. Then there is Athanasios 
Christopoulos, who, in Anacreontics, charmed the 
ladies, and wrote pretty love and drinking songs. 
In still more recent times, we have two poetic 
brothers of the name of Soutsos, who have sung 
many good songs. In Greece, I believe, these mep 
are now not thought much of; partly on account 
of their political opinions, and partly because their 
self-conceit is intolerable. 

Amongst ^seo-Hellenic lyric poets, Professor 
Rangavis deserves particular mention. He is a 
d2 



xlli BIOGRAPHICAL NOTICES, ETC. 

man of thorough scholarship ; but has frequently- 
chosen the popular dialect as the vehicle of his 
poetic feelings. There are also Calvos, and Salo- 
mos. and a numerous host of young lyrists ; but 
whether they are to produce poems worthy of a 
place beside those of Pindar and Simonides, time 
alone can tell.

NOTES. 



Callings, p. 3. 

8. 6kk6t€, Bach. 

13. Briinck put rjv instead of el, because he thought el 
with the conjunctive a solecism, but recent editors have 
followed the readings of the codd. : and el with the conj, 
occurs frequently, not only in the Elegiac but in other 
poets, and sometimes in prose. Jelf, 854, 1. Later writ- 
ers, on the other hand, join rjv with the indicat., as in 
Agathias, Hist. p. 217, 12, and with the opt. Hist. p. 32. 2., 
Kiebuhrs edit. Comp. also the use of iwei and enr]v in 
Minmermus, fr. 1, v. 5 ; fr. 2, v. 9 ; and see Winer. Gram- 
matik d. K. Sprachidioms, Fiinf. Aufl. p. 340, where all re- 
ferences required will be found. 

17. "But him" (that is, the person who does not avoid 
the fight) " both great and small lament." This use of 6\iyos 
is rare. It occurs in Homer. It is the only meaning of 
the comparative 6\l£(dv which is common in Alexandrine 
writers, and of vnohL&v, which is Homeric. 



Tyrt^eus, p. 4. 

I. The -ttoXis here is Sparta. From this passage it has 
been wrongly inferred that Tyrtseus was a Spartan. 

II. 7. For the as in S^/ioVa?, see Jelf, 82, 5. Another in- 
stance of as short in the ace. plur. of first declension occurs 
in fr. 5. of Tyrt., — deanoras oi/xco£b ires-, at the beginning of 
a hexameter. 

8. The sense of this line has been much disputed. Per- 
T 



176 NOTES. 

haps the best interpretation is that of Miiller (in his Dori- 
ans) and Schneidewin, who take it to mean, — answering 
with straight-forward rhetrse ; that is, saying yes or no, 
either approving or disapproving of the decrees of the kings 
or senate. But in this way the meaning of evOvs is strange, 
and, if it occurs at all, very unusual. I have therefore al- 
tered the common pointing, and join rrpecr. yep. with apx^tv, 
and 8rj floras dv. with fivdelaOai, and make the sense, — that 
the common people, who are now opposing just decrees, 
should, &c. The dvr'i in dvraTvopeifiopevovs has, according 
to this plan, its usual force, as in dvnXeyeiv. The only ob- 
jection to this is, that Plutarch stops at dvraTrofieifiofievovs. 
Plutarch, however, quoted as much as he required for his 
purpose ; and he either may not have cared to insert the 
rest, or he may have forgotten. See Plut. Lye. vi. 

II. For re Schneidewin has de. I should like rfj, "in 
this way." 

III. 4. Bergk and some others write es regularly in 
Tyrtseus, even where the codd. have els, and ylvofiai for 
ylyvofiai. 

9 & 10. These verses have been amended in various 
ways ; but not successfully. As they stand, they have a 
sense, but certainly not a good one. 

16. For av Walckenaer wrote fjv, which has been generally 
adopted. But av is nearly as common as rjv, as the reader 
will see from my text which represents the MSS. in this 
point. 

17. Bergk and others think that there is something 
corrupt, and have proposed various emendations. But a 
change is unnecessary here. " The piercing of the back of 
a man fleeing is a grievous thing, a great calamity" — is 
good sense ; and also good Greek, for the to is frequently 
omitted. See Jelf, 678, 3, d., obs. 1. 

25. I have written opfipipos here and elsewhere, because 
it is found in some MSS. ; and, being the strangest form, is 
most likely correct. So in MS. of Babrius we have dpftXr]- 
Xpos, Fab. 36, 7 ; and dp^Xrjxp^rjs in Fab. 93, 5. In the 
latter fable it seems wrong. Liddel and Scott assert that 
ofxftpLuos is a mistake of transcribers. This is not without 
probability, since modern Greek has no such letter as our 
b, so that if the person dictating were to pronounce /3 
in oppifios like our b, the copyist would very probably 
write it p[3, or prr. But that /*/3 or pre was at an early 
period representative of one sound, I infer from a pas- 
sage in an apocryphal gospel (Thomas's, ch. vi. in Jones's 
Canon, vol. ii. p. 190,) where the Hebrew letter beth is 
written fined ; and it is just possible that even dp(3Xjixp<*>- 



NOTES. 177 

fys in the fable is correct, and the a to be taken short, 
though there are apparently three consonants after it, there 
being in reality only two, equivalent to our hi. 

IV. 6. /xoXlov, G. M. Schmidt, for jiaXKou. fidXiou- [xdWov, 
Hesychius. In a note in Alberti's edition, Heinsius doubts 
whether pdWov is not a mistake for fxaXkov, and refers to 
Theocritus xi, 10, without good reason. See also the pas- 
sage from Choeroboscus in Lobeck. Path. Gr. Serm. Ele- 
ment, p. 469. Jelf has omitted paXkov and paXkov, ace. 
sing, of paXXos, in his list of words distinguished by 
accent. 

10. This line is written in the text as in other editions ; 
but I am very much inclined to change the pointing, to 
place a colon after akicrjs, and remove the dashes, making 
the sense, " I should not praise a man for any excellence 
but that of impetuous courage : for a man does not be- 
come either useful or celebrated in a time of war, unless," 
&c. This will seem the more probable, if it is remembered 
that these words were intended to rouse the Spartans to 
fight. There is thus a kind of anacoluthon in the con- 
struction, but none in the sense, as 7rkrjv 6. a. expresses the 
eZ prj that would be expected. 

19. 6' eneaiv, Hermann, for Se necrelv. 

27. I have written rovd' for rov d\ - 

39. Thiersch suggested that the four following lines 
should be read in this order, — 41, 42, 39, 40. 

V. 3. Perhaps Xaia?=Xai/3a?=ao-^iSo?. See Hesychius,

6. kcikou, Hermann, for ko\6v. Comp. fr. 5. v. 3. & v. 7. 

II. 2. Brunck wrote cty instead of ai^' ; and Schnei- 
dewin and Bergk have followed him. I have restored the 
reading of the codd. The word expresses only one part of 
the simile intended ; the other part, that the leaves as 
speedily fade as they bloom, is rightly left to the reader's 
own conception. See Foster's article on Coleridge's Friend 
in his Contributions to the Eclectic.

poem called Salamis, which Solon recited in the Agora, in 
order to rouse up his fellow-citizens to take possession of 
Salamis. See Plut. Solon. 

II. 14. ra depcedXa bUr]s. Bergk.

22. (ptXais, Bergk, for cpiXois or <p[Xovs. 

26. arrvyvd, Bergk, for £vyd. There is no need of a change, 
however, as the first syllable of £vyd may be long, by arsis. 

28. Schaefer thinks that in this line edeXovaiv is an in- 
stance of personification. It seems to me that it is a very 
clear case of the auxiliary use of deXco. See instances in 
Liddel and Scott on eOeXco. Perhaps we should read eVe^etz/ 
instead of eV ^x elv ? "though there are undoubted instances 
of the en before the ovk. 

30. Most codd. el ye ns (p. ; one has el ye ns rj. The text 
is due to H. Wolf. Perhaps the correct reading is that of 
Bergk, —

III. 1. Korais conjectured dirapKel, which perhaps is the 
right reading ; or enapKet is to be taken in the sense of 
dirapKel.

IV. Solon addressed these words to the Athenians on 
hearing that Peisistratus had become tyrant. 

VI. 11. For Tifiaxriv Ahrens proposed p.erla>o-iv. Perhaps 
it should be y dp-ao-iv. The proper meaning of dp.da> is, to 
cut down, as Donaldson (Cratyl. p. 294) has shewn ; but 
without doubt it frequently implies a collecting together 
the results of the cutting down. Here both ideas seem to 
be combined. 

1 5. d v. S. r., " but ends in being very grievous." 

31.1 have adopted the common reading instead of that of 
the codd., avrW d., only I have placed the comma at iravrms 
and not at avris. Probably the right reading is avrol dvdp- 
aia ; and then avrol in v. 30 would be changed into avrUa. 

35. avrlic, Bergk, for avris. 

42. The common reading is navrcos and noWd. 7rdvra>s 
is an emendation of Gesner's for the iravrav of all the codd. 
7rXao-ra occurs in two codd. The superlative as well as the 
comparative is sometimes followed by the genitive ; Jelf, 
502, 3. Bergk proposed Ketrrjo-dai instead of Krr)o-ao~6ai ; 
but there is no need of a change. 

48. Bergk unnecessarily puts a colon at Xarpevei, the 
change from the singular of the noun to the plural of the 
relative being quite common. 

52. Movo-eW, Brunck, for Mov adoov. I take ndpa to be for 
ndpto-ri. The poet grows lively in his account of the dif- 
ferent modes of gaining a livelihood ; and accordingly says, 
"here comes another who has been taught the gifts." 
Schneidewin proposes apa, Bergk nepi. 

60 ft". This is now a standard passage with the advocates 
of animal magnetism. 

69. Most codd. have Ka\eos ; two have Kaidos. The con- 
trast requires KaK&s. 

70. eickvo-iv d(ppoavvr]s, " good fortune, which releases him 
from his folly." The idea that a man becomes, or at least 
that he is to be reckoned, aocpos, when he gets plenty of 
money, and is successful, was common in ancient times, 
and has not yet completely disappeared. Pindar expresses 
the idea exactly in Pyth. ii. 56, which I construe with 
Boeckh and Bergk. Boeckh paraphrases it thus : — Sum- 
mum arbitror sapientise ut opibus prseditus felix perdures, 
neque acerbas fortunes vicissitudines experiare ; " Not. Crit. 
in 1. See also Pyth. viii. 74, and Simonides of Ceos, fr. 8. 
v. 7. Solon, however, does not give his own opinion here 
(see Solon, fr. 16), but merely states a fact. It is curious 
to notice the different meanings of wise and foolish, good 
and bad, in different states of society, and at different pe- 
riods. See the Prolegomena to Welcker's Theognis ; and

the discussions of the point in Grote's History of Greece, 
and Donaldson's Cratylus ; and add to these the curious 
circumstance, that in some parts of Scotland, by a wise 
man is meant a stout, well-made, healthy man ; and by a 
silly person, a weak, unhealthy creature.

in a good sense ; and the meaning would be, — " he still

11. Brunck changed Sovkeirjv into bovXirjv, and he has 
been followed by all editors. But there is no reason to 
doubt the law laid down by Hephaestion (pp. 5, 7.) that a 
long vowel or a diphthong may become short, if followed 
by another vowel. Indeed, if the latter vowel be long, it 
is generally difficult in pronunciation to give the full time 
to the preceding long vowel or diphthong. But, in spite of 
Hephaestion, both Hermann and Porson (Hecuba, 1090) 
have maintained that the long vowel cannot become short ; 
and Porson actually changed the Ccorjs, quoted by Hephaes- 
tion as an instance of the shortening of a long vowel, into 
£6r)s. Neither Hermann nor Porson give a reason for their 
opinion, both deeming it unnecessary. Their error, for error 
it certainly is, arises from the idea that there was an indis- 
soluble connexion between the sign eo and a long sound o, 
and that the letters of the Greeks answered as regularly for 
one, and only one sound, as the signs of Pitman's Phono- 
graphy. Bat the idea is false. The Greeks were, in some 
respects, the most lawless of speakers — likely enough, were 
very inexact in their principles of pronunciation, — and in 
this especial point, we have express and incontrovertible 
evidence that they were no phonotypists, but, as the mo- 
dern Greeks say anthrojoos, though they write it avdpamos, 
so the ancient Greeks could say zoes, though they wrote it

farjs. The instances of the shortening of the diphthong 
and long vowel in the Greek poets are numerous ; so numer- 
ous indeed, that even Hermann and Porson were forced to 
allow the shortening of the diphthong in some cases, though 
the latter was inclined to carry out his phonographic prin- 
ciples, and write noels for notels. Hephaestion quotes as in- 
stances, naXaLcov in a verse of Sotades, Xrjdalov in Anacreon 
(v. 4 of fr. I. of this Selection), 'ApxeXaiSos in Parthenius, II77- 
veXaoto in Homer, 6eir) in Bhintho, ddoidarcos in Anacreon, 
&c. This same dovXeios occurs with the second syllable short 
in iEschyl. Pers. 51., and Sept. Theb. 304, where the editors 
have changed the reading of the MSS. We have ronijes in 
Pers. 582, Imreios in Pind. Olymp. i. 101, Pyth. vi. 50, Nem. 
ix. 9, 7raTpu>os in Pind. Nem. ix. 14, and Eur. Hec. v. 80, and 
fiarp&es in Pind. Isth. v. 62, though here Boeckh seems right 
in changing it into [xdrpccs. These instances could be mul- 
tiplied indefinitely. In all cases then, in which I have the 
authority of MSS. on my side, I have introduced into my 
text the diphthong or long vowel which previous editors 
had shortened. For Boeckh's opinion, comp. Not. Crit. on 
Pind. Olymp. xiii. 81, p. 424, and on Nem. ix. 14, p. 549. 

12. Bergk changed 37^77 decnroras into fjdq decnroTwv, the lat- 
ter word being supported by one codex ; quite unnecessarily. 
The idea is, — " Such was the terror which the masters of 
the slaves used to inspire into them, that even after their 
freedom, they trembled at the sight of them." The truth 
of this fact is attested by those who have witnessed in 
Jamaica what Solon saw in Athens. In his second edi- 
tion, Bergk proposes eiXr). e'lXea- deafioi Hesychius. 

13. Bergk changed apart t into apart], which is supported 
by one cod. : unnecessarily, — "These things I did by virtue 
of the authority which was given me (Kpdrei) ; uniting har- 
moniously both violence and justice." 

21. Korais takes nlap as an adjective — "fat milk," — as it 
is often taken in the Odyss. ttjaipeofxai governs two accu- 
satives, and this is evidently the construction here, — " be- 
fore he take the cream off the milk." 

26. For ovvck Bergk reads Uvea. So Donaldson (New 
Cratylus, p. 452, second edition) thinks that wherever 
elvcKa occurs as a conjunction, ovveica ought to be read ; 
and where ovuena occurs as a preposition, it should be 
changed to ehena. But the passages which would have to 
be changed, are far too numerous to admit alteration in 
this way. The authority of MSS. must be submitted to in 
such a matter, since language is exceedingly arbitrary. We 
have, in our own language, some analogous cases, though 
perhaps the analogy is not perfectly complete. Our word 
because is for by cause ; and the right construction of the 



182 NOTES. 

word is, — by cause of his having done, in which form it 
occurs even in Greek : alriq rov rov Zapdrav elprjKevai, k. t. X., 
" because Zaratas (Zoroaster) had said " (Hippolytus (Cai- 
us ?) against Heresies, p. 8 in Miller's). But we now com- 
monly say, by cause he did it, — a sentence as ungrammatical 
or unphilosophical as etveKa with an indicative after it. 

lb. For dpxrjv and KVK.evp.evos Lobeck proposed opyfj and 
KVK.Xevp.evos. Perhaps dpxqv should be merely changed into 
ap!$r)v, as Ahrens proposes ; and iv in the next line into av, 
though this is not absolutely necessary.

and parodied by Porson, whose verses are given in Bur- 
gess's Greek Anthology, p. vii. Pref. The motto of "Wilson's 
Noctes Ambrosianse is suggested by some lines of Phocy- 
lides. 



Xenophanes, p. 16. 

I. 2. dp-cpiTiOel, Dindorf, for dp,(piTi6eis. If the reading be 
not as Bergk suggests, o-re<pdvovs aXXos, 6 §', aXkos p.ev has 
to be supplied to the dp.cpiTiOe'i. Schneidewin quotes as a 
similar instance, Pind. Nem. viii. 37. aXkore in the same 
way is sometimes to be supplied, as in Eurip. Hec. 28, in 
his reference to which Porson quotes Soph. Trach. v. 11. 

5. This verse is given in various ways in the codd., and 
numerous emendations have been proposed. Three codd. 
read aXkos §' olvos eo-riv eroipos, and three omit cprjo-l Trpo- 
dao-eiv. Hermann, Schneidewin, and Bergk (1st. edit.), 
omit the aXkos, and read obos 8', Schneidewin translating 
Trpobooo-eiv, defecturum esse. But Bergk, in his second edi- 
tion, has aXkos S' ohos eroipos, perceiving that there is an 
allusion to another kind of wine besides that in the Kparrjp. 
I am certain that the sense of Bergk's last is correct, though 
I am not sure of the exact reading. Athenaeus, xi. p. 464, 
quotes a passage from Aristotle, in which he mentions jugs, 
'PodiaKal x^r/ndes, which were thought to make the wine 
less intoxicating (7rpo8a>ae iv) ; and these were made of earth 
(jieCk. iv Kepdp,ois), mixed with myrrh, crocus, and other 
sweet-smelling flowers (avOeos 6o-d.). Xenophanes plainly 
alludes to this ; but the reading may either be, aXkos 
§' ea-nv er' olvos, or as in text ; or SKXos 6' eo-nv eroip-os. In 



NOTES. 183 

this latter case, Kparrjp would be supplied, and then we 
might suppose an inscription on it to the effect that it 
would not betray. On the other hand, peck, iv. k. would 
not be so appropriate to Kparrjp as to ohos. It is curious 
to notice that similar earthenware jugs are just now com- 
ing into fashion ; but whether for the same useful proper- 
ties that made the x VT P^ e ^ so much valued, I do not know. 

11. av to, Karsten, for avro. av=dva. 

16. I have adopted Bergk's punctuation ; still the sense 
of tcivt. — viSpis is not plain. 

20. Hermann and Donaldson deny that the verb elpi, in 
the sense of to exist, can be omitted. This is true as a 
general rule, and it is what philosophy would lead us to 
expect ; yet as all those who use language are not philoso- 
phers, it occasionally happens that language goes against 
philosophy ;. and so we do certainly find in Greek writers 
the omission of the dpi as a substantive verb. This is one 
instance ; there is another in Theognis, 252, in a note on 
which Schneidewin refers also to Theogn. 859, 864 ; Ho- 
mer, II. 0. 376. In the present verse codd. have o> crrjpvr]- 
iioo-vvq. The text is from Schneidewin. 

II. 10. I take the clause ravra x- with Schneidewin as 
the apodosis on which depend all the protases beginning 
with ei, — " he would receive all these honours, not being 
so worthy of them, as I with my wisdom am.' 



Theognis, p. 18. 



6. Most codd. read pa8ivr)s, which was commonly changed 
into padivfjs. The (frolvit- is sometimes fern.; and accord- 
ingly Bergk restored the reading of codd. See Herodot. i. 
193, cited by Bergk. 

8. Bergk takes d-rveipeo-ir) in the sense of KvKkoreprjs, as in 
daKTvXios direipcov. Perhaps, however, the adjective is used 
adverbially. 

25. UoXv-rratdr), Elmsley, for IIo\v7rai8r]. 

56. Only one cod. reads Trjsft-Trokeos, the rest, rr)v cY-ttoKiv, 
and one codex has t'Laco in the margin instead of egco. Per- 
haps the correct reading is, e£ «§' cost e'Xa<£ot tt)vc¥ e. it. — 
" but other people have thus portioned out among them- 
selves this city, like stags, and are now the good." The 
only difficulty is the cost eXacpoi, which would have to be 
taken in the sense of coward-like : comp. the sentence in 
Arnold's Fourth Lecture (Introductory Lectures on Mo- 
dern History, p. 160), concluding with, — " cowardly because 



1 84 NOTES. 

they are undisciplined, and cruel because they are cow- 
ardly." See also Apollonius, Homeric Lexicon, under dypo- 
repas. In favour of the reading of the cod. opt. may be 
cited, Aristot. Polit. v. 4, 5, where is mentioned the cir- 
cumstance of the people (brj/xos) living in the country, owing 
to the smallness of cities. 

261. I have changed eWi irapa into eVeiTroi/. Various 
emendations have been proposed. The lines seem to state 
that Theognis had been in love with a girl whom her pa- 
rents betrothed to another person. On Theognis going to 
see her, he finds her sitting with her parents ; but refuses 
to drink wine, proposing water as the proper drink for him. 
She goes to fetch it, when Theognis takes the opportunity 
of embracing her. The next four lines may well enough 
be supposed to be the words spoken by the girl. Comp., 
for a similar instance of a lover's refusal to drink wine, 
Drimytikos's Fair Shepherdess, v. 124, — " Kpaa-X bh jriW," 
he says. 

184. "And every one wishes that those which are of 
noble breed," &c, as v. 189, — ck kcikov and it- dyadov ; "the 
noble one marries one of the lower orders," &c. 

344. The codd. read boirjv b\ 8olr)v r holt] r\ Turnebus 
proposed boirjs, which has been adopted by Bergk, Schnei- 
dewin, and others. I think that Theognis expresses a very 
determined resolution in these verses, — "May I die" (al- 
most equivalent to an oath, and somewhat like our slang 
phrase — " hang me") " if I dont find for myself ; and give 
woes for woes ; for this is but just." 

349. This sentence is ambiguous, but the meaning un- 
doubtedly is, — " May it be mine to drink their black blood." 
Not certainly a very pleasant draught, but one peculiarly 
agreeable to the tastes of the inhabitants of the regions 
below. See Eurip. Hecub. 536. And perhaps here Theog- 
nis means to hint that he is now almost a shade, but that, 
in whatever state he be, he will be heartily glad to see his 
enemies utterly ruined. It is the earth generally that 
drinks up the black blood. iEschyl. Suppl. 961. Spenser 
(Faery Queen, Book i. Canto iii.), — " The thirsty land 
dronke up his life." The passages quoted by Welcker, H. 
xxiL 346, iv. 35, xxiv. 212, may be examined ; but I take it 
that they are more peculiarly characteristic of the Homeric 
age and Homeric tastes. 

669. Perhaps yiv. is to be taken as the nom. plur. neut. 
— " Those that know me," — with sarcastic effect ; just as 
we frequently use the word creature to express a man who 
has scarcely a soul in him. For something like this, see

common reading, put a colon at ap.eivov instead of at eUai. 

99. I have adopted the reading of an unknown scholar, 
instead of 8rj Xyyoip-ev. This use of the optative for the im- 
perative does occur, though rather uncommon. 

327. The sense, according to Welcker is, — "Men bear

the gods are sure to punish them." Bergk changes S' ovk

Anth. corresponds exactly to the verses of Metrodorus ; 
that of Stob. which I have followed, is slightly different.

rapid motion, as in Pind. Pyth. ix. 121. 



Meleager, p. 38. 

DI. Meleager at first gives a description of Eros, as if 
he were a slave who had run off from him ; and then finds 
him in Zenophila's eyes. Comp. the extract from Moschus. 

9. The idea is, that Eros places his nets at the entrance 
of the den in which he hides ; so that they who attempt 
to catch him, will be sure to be entrapped. 

IV. 2, Brunck's text has here, n \lyei and Kpeiceis tl 
which I have altered, supposing that Meleager wishes to 
give an idea of the confusion into which he is thrown ; and, 
accordingly, as is usual, puts two or three interrogatories. 
Perhaps the emendation of Schneider, who converts the 
reading of the Vat. Cod. Xiyiav (the n is there omitted) into 
Xiav, is correct. 

V. Professor Wilson compares this with Burns's " love 
will venture in," and justly gives the preference to the Scot- 
tish poem. 



188 NOTES. 

VII. 5. Various conjectures have been hazarded on this 
and the following verse. The reading of the text, which 
very nearly agrees with the Vat. Cod., seems the most pro- 
bable ; only ck has to be taken adverbially, in the sense of 
" after this." iv is quite common as an adverb. Might it 
not be better to read thus : — 

77000s §' oKokv y/ios dveKpaye' vvk& 'Yfievaios 
aiyav r els yoepov, k. t. A. — 

" changed night and silence." The passage would then be 
an instance of the strange usage by which a thing is placed 
for the absence of it. See Soph. Ajax, v. 674, where a blast 
of wind lulls the ocean to sleep ; and Schaefer's note on the 
verse ; also Pind. Isth. ii. 40, and commentators. Meleager 
here imitates Erinna, p. 74. 



Antipater, of Thessalonica, p. 41. 

Of the poetesses mentioned here, Anyte and Nossis have 
had many of their epigrams preserved in the Anthology. 
For an enumeration of the poetesses, and a good account of 
some of them, see the Scottish Educational Journal for 
December 1853. 

3. Motpco is the reading of the Cod. Vat., and probably is 
correct. 



II. The common title of this is, — To an Eros pound. 

1. crv(T(j)[yy(Dv. Something wrong in this word. Huet 
thought the idea was, — squeezing the tendons of the hands

But this interpretation seems forced. Jacobs proposed,

I. Jacobs adduces parallels from the Latin poets. Comp. 
also the following verses, which are sometimes, though 
wrongly, given as part of the song, " Waly, waly : " — 

" When cockle shells turn siller bells, 
And mussels grow on ilka tree, 
When frost and snaw shall warm us a', 
Then will my love turn true to me." 

IV. Brunck changed the last two verses to make them 
pentameter ; but there is no good reason for doing so.

is applicable both to the morning and Helen. The as, 
which one would expect to introduce the comparison, is 
omitted, as in v. 29. Wordsworth quotes as instances of 
this, Theocr. Id. xv. 88, Aristoph. Plut. v. 295, and refers to 
Keen. ad. Greg. Cor. cxliii, and Schaefer on Bos. Ellips. v.

For the sentiment, compare the song in Meyerbeer's Opera 
of the Huguenots : — 

"Plus blanche que la blanche hermine, 
Plus pure qu'un jour de printemps, 
Un ange, une vierge divine."

Epig. 1. This epigr. is generally supposed not to belong

Bion, p. 52. 

4. In transcribing this poem of Bion from Gaisford for 
the printer, I wrote KvavoaroXe in obedience to the laws of 
accentuation. I find Ahrens accents in the same way ; but 
most editions have KvavoaroXe. The law is, that when an 
adjective and noun are joined together, the accent is pro- 
paroxytone ; when an adjective or noun and verb, if the 
verb is passive, it is proparoxytone ; if active, paroxytone. 
Here the word is evidently a compound of an adjective and 
substantive ; and /xeXavoaroXos is proparoxytone. At the 
same time I doubt whether I am correct ; for, on asking 
Mr Giallias how he pronounced the words KvapoaroXos 
(which means, in Mod. Greek, blue-robed) and fieXavoaroXos, 
he at once gave me KvavoaroXos and fieXavoaroXos. I should 
at once yield to the authority of tradition, if I were sure 
that it was tradition ; but educated Greeks have become 
so fond of bringing back the old, that KvavoaroXos, accent 
and all, may have been taken from the editions of Bion. 

69. " Bare leafage is not a good couch for Adonis." I 
have adopted an emendation in Ahrens, but changed the 
pointing, Ahrens putting a comma at 'Adavidi.

4. vypov, Walckenaer, for Xvypov. Hermann, De Metris, 
p. 118. brings forward two or three instances of a spondee 
in the third foot ; but they have been easily corrected. 

5. I have retained the reading of the codd., but placed a 
colon after airio-ra, understanding the substantive verb 
Zcttiv, according to a previous note. I take the meaning to 
be, — Henceforth there is nothing that we may not believe, 
whether it be a report of gods or men ; of mundane or 
supra-mundane things ; nay, even men may expect to see 
the most extraordinary wonders with their own eyes. 

We might change the words into eic tov to. Tnard, as in Pind. 
Olym. xiv. 5, though thus it, as well as other passages that 
might be quoted, would be at variance with a law authori- 
tatively laid down by Donaldson (Cratylus, p. 484, second 
ed.), and adopted by the reviewer of Kerchever Arnold's 
books in Fraser's Magazine. 

Thiersch, Miiller, and Bergk changed the passage into —

changed into text. Hermann changed ?jv into §. Bergk

SlMONIDES, OF AMORGOS, p. 59. 

2. Schneidewin has rarrpcoTa in one word. Wolf distin- 
guished Tcnrpura, imprimis, and to. upwra, res primse : and 
Boeckh, following him, in his edition of Pindar wrote to- 
rrav, roXonrov, &c ; Boeckh, Pref. to Pind. p. xxxvii. This 
mode of writing, however, is incorrect. See Lobeck, Path. 
Grsec. Serm. Elem., Part i. p. 579. 

12. \it. The codd. have Xiropyov, which Gesner changed 
into \iTovpy6v=Ka.Kovpyov, Hesych. Perhaps Xirapyov is the 
right reading. 

20. avovr]. I take this word to mean, a peculiar sharp 
chatter or shrill screech, and, consequently, very expres- 
sive here. It occurs also in iEschyl. Eumen. 331, where 
Hermann translates it, tabes mortalibus. There I should 
take avovr], as here, — a shriek so wild and unearthly that no 
mortal could accompany it with the phormynx. 

22. 7n]p6v, one codd. ; the others, novrjpov. The sense in 
which rrrjpos must be taken here is unusual. Babrius, when 
he gives the same idea, has irrjpbs cppevas ; Fab. 10, v. 14. 
Perhaps the right reading is ttyjXov. 

25. Kavtf, r)v, Bergk. 

28. rr)v p.ev, — " the one day." rr)v 8', in v. 32, the other

42. I have changed 8e into re, and ttovtos into ttovtov. I 
think the allusion is to the swell of the sea when it rushes 
up and rages against the land ; and to its subsequent retreat 
and calmness. Perhaps dXXoirjv should be changed into 
aUXrjv, as O. Schneider suggests. The emendations pro- 
posed of this verse are numerous ; and some, as Schneide- 
win, suspect it, and inclose it in brackets. 

45. Two codd. have earepgev. There seems to be some- 
thing wrong in these lines. Perhaps a colon should be 
placed at irovrjaaTo, and the next line be read thus : —

62. It is difficult to see the connexion of this verse with 
the preceding ; and, accordingly, Mure omits it in a trans- 
lation of these hues. My first attempt at emendation gave 



i£oit av, ayyea 5' avdpa Tvoiei Trjp.iKeiv, 

which would make better sense ; but besides that the 
changes are great, we should have to presume Simonides 
ignorant of the Porsonian pause. I now propose, — 

i£oit av, ayyea 8' avrpaTreiv etrj cpCkov. 

The only change I have made in the sound is inserting an 
n between two ee sounds, and expelling a t. A knowledge 
of the investigations into the pronunciation of the ancient 
Greeks is essentially necessary to an understanding of the 
errors of transcribers. The most useful manual, giving a 
view of the main results, is Prof. Blackie's Essay on the 
Pronunciation of Greek, where the literature of the sub- 
ject is also noticed ; and of the books mentioned, I think 
Liscov decidedly the best and most useful, Seyfiarth being 
too prolix and ponderous. 

76. avTOKcoXos, Bergk changed into civ6ko*\os- 

98. -no, form of rivi. 

100. irekerat, codd. correctly. Some would change it into 
TTeWerai (phonographically), and others into niXvarai. 

110. Schneidewin thinks that k^x- y- a. is an instance of 
aposiopesis, and supposes that Xw/3arai, or some such word, 
is to be supplied by the mind, translating the words, nam 

oscitante marito . Perhaps iarl is understood , comp. 

Theocr. Id. xv. 5, 90 ; and then the sentence would mean, 
— •' Whoever of them seems to be most temperate, she is 
just the woman who is most outrageous ; for she belongs 
to a gaping husband." The last clause would be para- 
phrased in our slang thus, — " for the man who would be 
caught by such outward appearances is sure to be a goose, 
and, consequently, his wife will have her own way." Com- 
pare xh v an< ^ K^X 7 ] 1 *^' 

117. The poem is evidently incomplete, there being no- 
thing to correspond to the tovs p.£v.

5. tovt. t. The sense of these words is not known. 

6. rhv x^cuvav, codd. The editors are all inclined to ex- 
pel the rav ; but it is not unlikely that Hipponax varied 
his dialect by a mixture of Doric, for comic purposes, just 
as Alex. Soutsos introduces the vulgar into his Neo-Hel- 
lenic ; or Punch, all kinds of cockneyisms and provincial- 
isms into his English poems. There are other traces of 
Doric in Hipponax, — <fiq>8es, e. g. in fr. 56, 

7. prjypvrat is the conjunctive ; Jelf, 273, 3, obs. 3. 

III. 1. pvb. pvpbrjv, Bergk. 

6. x°'p ros, 5 signifying the food of a man, is evidently a 
slang word, as may be inferred from the authors who use 
it in this sense. Besides this passage, it occurs in the 
iraiyvia of Crates, fr. i. v. 3., and in the Cyclops of Euripi- 
des, v. 507. So xoprdCa may have come to signify, " to sati- 
ate (of men)," in the common dialect, and thus found its way 
into the New Test. (Mark viii. 8, &c.) and modern Greek. 
In the N. T. it is applied not only to men but also to birds 
(Bev. xix. 21). In Attic writers, x°P T< *& is sometimes ap- 
plied to men, but with a sarcastic effect, as in Plato, Be- 
public, ii. 586. 

V. This is a parody. Perhaps the proper reading is, — 
'Evpvjxebovn bt orrjv jr., which would make the order of con- 
struction rather involved ; but all the better for the parody. 
— " Tell me the wide-ruler, I beseech you, on account of a 
plague that is like to swallow the sea, how," &c. The verses 
seem to be a prayer of Poseidon that some glutton who 
was eating too many fishes, and thus swallowing the ocean, 
should meet his just fate beside the unpastured sea. The 
glutton is evidently a poet, and, consequently, under the 
guardianship of the Muse ; hence Poseidon prays to her. 
Bergk proposed iravroxapvfiftw.

I. Welcker, in his Prolegomena to Theognis, p. xxiii., re-

Perhaps, however, the clause okov N. is in apposition with

that there were exceptions, and arranges these exceptions 
under a law, I have also placed the tenuis, instead of the 
aspirate, in words compounded or elided, though the law 
stated by the grammarians does not oblige me to do so, 
and I may be wrong in it. Modern Greek agrees with 
iEolic in rejecting the aspirate in pronunciation, yet it has 
such words as deprjaas, — " having left," — and it still retains 
the aspirate in writing.

NOTES. 197 

V. 1. Sour. ap.. Mr W. R. Hamilton, in Mure's Hist, of 
Gr. Lit. vol. iii. p. 268, suggests that this passage means, 
— " The finger will serve for daylight." This, however, can- 
not be the idea, for both Alcseus and the writer of the 
epigram in Anth. Pal. xii, 50, where the words BciktvXos 
da>s occur, wish to begin drinking, not in the dusk but in 
the daytime. The usual interpretation, " a day soon pas- 
ses away" — literally, " is only a finger's breadth" — makes 
good enough sense. For the application of measures of 
length to time, comp. Matth. vi. 27, and Mimnermus, fr. 2., 
both quoted by Jacobs on the epigram of Asclepiades. 

2. In the woiKiXais of this verse, and in the KoiXai of fr. i., 
one of the divided syllables must be lengthened. I should 
be inclined to make the second syllable long ; the foot here 
being the usual double iambus ; and in the other case the 
antispast. Editors have different kinds of phonographical 
contrivances in such cases ; the attempts being made on 
the first syllable. Perhaps here the right reading is 7roUi 
KaXais, — "then make them beautiful," or, written phono- 
graphically, note.

good. Here it may be mentioned once for all, that verbs 
in aa> end in aipi in iEolic, and have their present participle 
in ais ; verbs in eo end in rjpt, and have their present par- 
ticiple in ei? ; and verbs in oca end in <opi (sometimes in 
mpi), and have the present participle in ois ; as yeXdco, ye- 
Xmpi, yfkciLs ; (pcoveco, cpcoi/77/11, (pcofei? ; iXevdepoco, eXev6epa>p.i, 
eXevdepms. 

10. 11. 12. This passage is corrupt, and the emendations 
of it are innumerable. 



198 NOTES. 

18. 19. These lines have been amended in various ways. 
I have adopted in the text an emendation proposed by Ah- 
rens, — VaX^v is for do-dXrjv, the inf. of do-dXtj/xi — to be care- 
less of, to disregard, — and Ahrens compares the construc- 
tion here with v(Bpi£eiv els nva. The codd. vary in their 
readings, but the best nearly agree in 8' rjvre 7rei6copai (some 
have Kai or fiai instead of p,ai) cray-qvea-aav, from which I 
should be inclined to read, — 

TLva brjvre ireiBa> ; 
iraicra y a'ivet aav (piXoTaTcu ris a g).— 

" Whom then am I to persuade 1 for every one of the young 
maidens speaks highly of your friendship." Of course the 
object of Sappho's affection will then be a woman — a cir- 
cumstance which the whole tenor of Sappho's poetry, as well 
as other parts of this ode would lead us to infer. Bergk 
thinks that a woman is meant. I find no trace in Sappho 
of an affection for men ; there being some doubtful pas- 
sages in which ttcus occurs, but whenever there is an adj. 
affixed to the ttols, it is fern. ; and therefore it is likely to 
be the same in the other cases. She seems to me to have 
got up her establishment of young ladies in order to rival 
the male sex in their lawful or Dorian paiderastianism. 
Indeed, Sappho probably played a part similar to Tenny- 
son's Princess, only that she remained constant to her 
purpose, though her scholars did not. 

20. Vcnrcjxi or Vdncpco was the Lesbian and proper name 
of the poetess. lb. aS. is the 3d pers. sing. pres. indicat.

of the common people of Greece, who say, for instance, 
eTTarrje for eTtdret.

II. 5. Old editions read yeXa'is, which Greek grammars 
(even Jelf) give as an infinitive. But Neue has conclusively 
shewn that there is no such form of the infinitive, the pas- 
sage on which the belief was founded being corrupt and 
easily amended. See Ahr. de Dial. Mol. p. 143, note.

but doubt their genuineness. Perhaps there is an allusion 
to the idea of a future state propounded by Musseus. See

dpdxavos. 10. Trpd^ais. 16. ovaa'ntoXiv. 17. pcopdaopai. 
19. akiBidov. 26. vppiv. 

19. A period is generally placed at yeveOXa, and direlpav 
is by enallage applied to it. For somewhat similar cases, 
see Pind. Olymp. xi. 6 ; Pyth. vi. 5 ; also Jelf, 440. I have 
removed the period ; but perhaps instead of toi should be 
written poi, though this is not absolutely necessary. The 
sense is, — The births of the countless follies (or fools) that 
are in this world are all good to me, provided no baseness 
be mixed with them. The sentiment is nearly the same as 
in w. 26, 27. rfkidtos is what misses or wanders from the 
mark ; then what is not aimed at a mark (comp. iEschyl. 
Agam. 351) ; pointless, objectless, aimless ; a thing that 
has no aim, i. e., absurd ; a man that has no aim, i. e. } a 
fool.

book Lucian in all probability borrowed his description.

6. Commonly this passage is found thus, — ov S' avrais

separating the letters differently, and adopting a hint from 
the common text at fjropi. Instead of eOeis, reBeis or ra- 
6eis may be given. I would not change \d6rjv into \ddav, 
the diversity having rather a pleasant effect. The sense is, 
— " And thou my child, again sent into forgetfulness by my 
song, sleepest." The ya has its proper force here, — into 
forgetfulness at least ; perhaps into pleasant dreams. The 
emendations have been numerous ; and among them may 
be noticed Professor Wilson's (Christopher North) yaXr}- 
valco for yaXaOrjvco. This would be the only place in which 
the dative of 771-00 occurs, and there is no gen. of it at all.

and anpaicTov, quod perfici non .potest, just as irovrjaai sig- 
nified to labour, i. e., to be sorely distressed, and Trovaacu, to 
perform a thing by labour. Ahrens has justly rejected the 
distinction between 71-01/7)0-01 and irovdcraL (De Dial. Doric. 
p. 148) as too fine ; and in the case of cmpaKTos, the usage 
of the word is most distinctly against Boeckh. In Pindar, 
aivpr^KTos occurs only once, and in the sense of useless ; in 
Simonides of Amorgos, fr. 1, v. 7, it means, what cannot be 
accomplished ; in fr. 7, v. 20, it means, unmanageable. In 
Theognis, 461, 1031, it has also the sense of, what cannot 
he accomplished. anpaKTos, on the other hand, signifies 
useless, in Simonides of Ceos. fr. 8 ; and here the sense is 
plainly, unmanageable. These instances shew that the dis- 
tinction is not only too fine but unsound.

XV. 1. The hpai is the Dionysiac season ; or the period 
at which the Dionysiac festival alluded to was held. This 
use of hpcu occurs sometimes in Pindar ; Olymp. iv. 1 ; 
Isth. ii. 23. 

6. The cod. has edrjKav iceivovs, which Bergk changed into 
6rjKav Ktuvvvevs. I have changed the 6rJKav into e6ev for 
Wea-av, just as in ep. 133 and 135, Simonides has dvedev for 
avedeo-av. Perhaps Wtvro, KtLvovs may be the correct read- 
ing. 

This epigram is rather difficult in some points. Schnei- 
dewin and Bergk have a comma at eOeipav, and a colon at 
6rjKav. Schneidewin takes the meaning to be, that though 
the Acamantid tribe had often rejoiced at the Dionysiac 
festivals, yet it was only now that for the first time their 
dancers (so he translated doidor Choreutae Bacchici) were 
successful in the contests ; and he thinks that Simonides 
is very happy in the delicate way in which he alludes to 
the previous unsuccessfulness of the Acamantid tribe. 
Such a meaning seems to me altogether forced. I have, 
therefore, made the first four lines a general introduction 
in which the liberality of the Acamantid tribe is praised. 
Xop. (p. 'A/cap., perhaps it might be better to take as cho- 
ruses appointed at the expense of the tribe wbich con- 
tended with each other ; and doibav as poets. We should 
thus have the statement here, that there were contests of 
choregies among some of the tribes separately, as well as 
the contests between the different tribes. As we know so 
little of these matters, 1 see nothing to hinder the suppo- 
sition, and perhaps in the inscription on the monument of 
Lysicrates (called also the Lantern of Demosthenes), of 
which there is a drawing in Dr Smith's Dictionary of Gr. 
and Kom. Geogr. p. 291, we have the supposition confirmed. 
This, as it is now generally read, goes thus, — AvaiKparrjs 
Avcrideidov KiKWvevs e^opryyet AKapavris 7rai8cou eviKa, which 
is translated, — " Lysicrates of Cicynna, son of Lysitheides, 
led the chorus, when the boys of the tribe of Acamas con- 
quered." In the first part of M. le Key's " Les Euines des 
plus beaux Monuments de la Grece," the inscription is given 
nearly as above, with a translation in which Lysitheides, 
instead of his son, is made to belong to the deme Cicynna. 
In the second part of the same work (Plate xxv), there is a 



NOTES. 203 

drawing of the monument, which I take to be as near an 
imitation of the original as the artist could make it, and 
there the reading suggested is ev xopfjyats, though the let- 
ters are partly indistinct — the effects of fire, as I learn from 
Yamvas. The translation then would be, — "Lysicrates, 
in the choregies of the sons of Acamas, conquered," — ex- 
actly similar to this passage. At the same time I know 
there are serious objections to this view. Stuart again and 
again accuses Le Roy of inaccuracy. The gen. 7raidcov joined 
with viKQ), which suggested to me the new translation, is 
common in the agonistic inscriptions given in the first 
volume of Boeckh, the more easily explained dative occur- 
ring only in a few ; and the inscription, as commonly given, 
agrees in form with many other inscriptions of a similar 
nature. Besides, there seems to be no mention of a doubt 
about its correctness, though Stuart in one place has e\o- 
prjyrji, and in another, e^op^-yei. The value of the emenda- 
tion which I propose, does not depend upon the correct- 
ness of this guess. The monument also gives support to 
Bergk's conjecture of Kikiwcvs. There is an interesting 
monograph referred to above on this Lysicratean monu- 
ment by N. Vamvas, Professor in the Othonian University 
of Athens. 

XYI. This is an extempore effusion, on snow being mixed 
with the wine of others, and not with the poet's. 

1. Codd. have ttjv, which perhaps should be retained. It 
refers to the snow. 

2. Walckenaer changed this wkvs into 6£vs — a change 
which appears to me similar to Bentley's emendation of 
secret into sacred in Parad. Lost, i. ; on which see De Quin- 
cey's Autobiogr. vol. i. p. 80. No doubt 6£vs appears more 
appropriate at the first blush than o>kvs, but <dkvs may have 
been more appropriate to the particular snow-storm referred 
to. Besides, as a general epithet, cokvs is true of Boreas ; see 
Tyrtteus, viii. v. 4. <dkv$ may also have had the meaning of 
sharp, for, though there are no clear instances of such a 
usage of it, the ideas of swiftness and sharpness are so 
nearly related to each other, that the word signifying the 
one generally comes to signify the other. So 6£vs in Greek : 
and raxvs I find in the grammarians occasionally instead 
of 6i-vs, for the acute accent. We have a similar instance 
iu our own language. The Scotch word snell signifies keen, 
piercing ; but the German form of the same word, schnell, 
means quick. The Scotch word snell is applied to winter 
by Captain Charles Gray (Wood's Songs of Scotland, vol. 
ii. p. Ill), whose verses have often been very foolishly sub- 
stituted, in the Wood edition, for our genuine national songs.

a diminutive from <TKvj3a\ov. These diminutives have a 
sarcastic force, in which way they are used frequently by 
Hipponax. Diminutives also occur frequently in Epictetus 
and M. Antoninus, such as dogdpiov, tyvxdpcov, evidently 
with a sarcastic force. In modern Greek, these diminu- 
tives have become very common with the same meaning as 
the words from which they are formed, as ncuhiov (naidi) 
and 7raiddpiov (7r<u$dpi) for ttcus, 6p,pdrLov (oppdri, pari) for 
op,pa, an eye.

13. I have preferred the reading of one cod. irdkvSepicea

he rolls round a fountain of light to many eyes. For such 
a use of 7roKv8epKea, see note on Alexander JEtolus. 

17. Mehlhorn proposes civaKn ; but aoi may either have 
arisen from carelessness of grammatical forms, or it may be 
joined with deidoov, as Elmsley and Hermann have taken it. 
Perhaps the right reading is dv a<pa. The idea of climb- 
ing is frequently applied to the sun, and consequently may 
be applied to stars ; though, as the stars were really re- 
garded as a heavenly chorus, moving up and down was quite 
natural to them. " Phoebus' fiery carre In hast was climbing

seus ; and as they are there arranged on a principle which 
Mure has pointed out, they should be read in the order of 
Athenaeus. In this selection the sequence of the scolia 
could not be shewn, as several of them had to be omitted. 

1. Leipsydrium is the name of a place, vno rrjv Hdpvr]6ov,

7. Would that it were possible dividing the breast and 
looking into mind to see what sort each one is. 

8. The meaning of this scolion I take to be, — that one

because, when he comes to the actual performance of the 
work, he will have quite enough to do with the business 
pressing on him. 

12. The various transformations which the fancy of lovers 
would lead them to, are worth looking at. Comp. Plato, 
Epigr. 1 ; Anacreontic 22 (20) ; Suliote song in Leake's

might be added to these.

Dinna think that we are beggars ; 
We're but bairns come to play,

thus make a hit. The pronunciation which Dionysius of 
Halicarnassus gives in his book, 7rept awOeo-ecds dvopdrcov, 
I take to be the rhetorical pronunciation, and not that of 
the people ; just as, now-a-days, some elocutionists, and 
those trained by them, pronounce nature, creature, in a 
way quite different from the common mode. See Prof. 
Blackie on the Pronunciation of Greek, pp. 24, 30, and the 
evidence in Liscov. 

25. AItcdXov is in apposition to acpiyya, viz., "the iEtolian,

13. The codd. have here, p.eyaka>v piKpolai ; and perhaps 
this is correct : " Mixing with the small lights of the great 
beings, viz., the stars." The awkwardness of the expres- 
sion might be allowed in a philosophical poem. As it 
stands in the text, the larger lights are the sun and moon ; 
the smaller, the stars.

70. I have adopted the pointing of Blomfield in this 
passage. The sense is, " I will call him Carneios ; for this 
is the custom of my country — this is the name that Sparta 
gives him ; Sparta is," &c. 

103. I have placed the colon after ev6v, instead of after 
(BeXos, as is usually done, and suppose the next clause also 
to be part of the people's cry. Perhaps the last clause 
should likewise be included in the cry, when aeibrj (which 
Bentley takes as second person singular pres. ind, pass, 
celebraris, comp. Hymn in Del. v. 275), would have to be 
changed into aet.Be, and to £' into rod*. The following verses

syllable of aveTva<pa>v is to be regarded long, probably be- 
cause the accent is there. Several instances of this force 
of the accent occur in the Anacreontics and later Greek 
poets.

accent beyond the accented syllable of the preposition. I 
suspect, however, that this is an exception. See the ac- 
centual verses, p, 135, w. 22, 30, where either Trapaax* or 
irapaax* must be the reading. 

Synesius, p. 132.

Symeon, p. 130. 

This hymn has been extracted from a Horologion of the 
Greek Church, published at Venice 1841 ; brought over by 
Professor Blackie for the library of the Edinburgh Univer- 
sity. See a list of these books in Prof. Blackie's Lecture 
on the Living Language of the Greeks, and its utility to 
the classical scholar : Sutherland and Knox, 1853. 

A note by the editor in the Horologion states, that this 
hymn was attributed to John of Damascus, in some of the 
earlier editions, and that it was placed among his works in 
the edition of them published in Paris, 1712, Vol. i. 691. 
He maintains that John of Damascus did not write in the 
measure of this hymn, and that the author is, without 
doubt, Symeon, who flourished about 1030, a.d., and was 
president of the monastery of St Mamas, in Constantinople. 
See Melet. Eccl. Hist. Book i. ch. 8, 3, which is in the 
Edinburgh University library. 

The rhythm is accentual. The capitals are placed here, 
where they are found in the Horologion. 

96. olKTippov, " thou merciful one." This word is 
omitted in Jelf 's list of words similar in spelling, but dif- 
ferent in accent.

that, not having let go the proper time for trading, on ac- 
count of our prizes we may sing." 

6. The order of the Greek here is strange, but the mean- 
ing plain. " To thy disciples, thou, the good one, didst say, 
Watch ; for at the hour which ye know not, I the Lord 
will come." 

Elppos. This is merely a name given to a Greek hymn, 
and Tpo7rdpLov is a part. So oikos is a part of a large ode. 
These ohoi are generally made such as that the first com- 
mences with the first letter of the alphabet, and the second 
with the second ; and sometimes they are so numerous as 
to go over all the letters. The ode from which this oIkos is 
taken contains six of them, of which this is the third ; 
hence it begins with y. 



Neo-Hellenic Lyrics, p. 146. 

I have thought it unnecessary to notice here the various 
Neo-Hellenic grammatical forms, as I have already given 
them in a Modern Greek Grammar, published by Adam and 
Charles Black, Edinburgh. 

1. One of the oldest ballads. 

2. nypav, they have taken ; from tVa/pco, in Neo-H. 7raipvci,

9. rrjv iroXiv is Constantinople ; Sophia, a church in it. 

3. o-qpavrpov, a small bell used in churches ; Kapivdva, a 
large bell used in steeples. 

4. 7ramras, a priest ; the force of the k<h is, that there 
was a priest to each bell. SidKos^Sidtcovos. 

5. o~ipa va, as soon as. '(3yovv from eK^atvco. ayia, the 
holy things — sacraments. In the next clause, there is an

wine.

to contract two vowels into one, as in ancient Greek. Thus 
o-ocpidv in second line is to be pronounced sophyan, two 
syllables, kcli also, when the ai is elided, is pronounced ki. 

II. Diakos, formerly a Klepht, took part in the war of 
Independence, and in April 1821, fell near Thermopylae. 
See Perreevos's 'A7r0p.vrjp.0vev para, vol. i. p. 53, and Tricou- 
pis's Greek Revolution, vol. i. p. 264.

2. Ae,8. is John the XefiepTTjs ; Xefievrrjs signifies a young

npcoTov is the first of the Palikars, and next to the captain.

from pdxrj=pdx ls ' fipvai (/3puco), a fountain. 

14. yia.Ta.Kiov (from diaTaaaa), a rendezvous. 

15. Trepvo) (7Te paw), to pass away. Kind has irepv, which 
he translates, " to return ;" but neither iraipva> nor 7repva> 
has this meaning, " While the spring is passing away." 

16. This line is ungrammatical, the verb yep-Lfa actually 
governing the nominative, " The mountains are filled with 
klephts, and the quarters (Xtpe'pm) of the klephts with 
slaves." This construction of yepi£a) still prevails in the 
vulgar dialect.

form of old Charon, who has kept his place firmly in the 
superstitions of the Greeks. 

2. 7tox is for ottov e'x« ; so in v. 25, 7ro^o> is for onov e'xco. 
avrapa, a storm, dim. avrapovka. 

3. po/3oXaco, to go down. eppo/3oAaye is the imperf. Kind 
says the y is the iEolic digamma, without good reason, 
though it is certainly similar. 

4. (peat, the red cap with blue tassels, worn by Albanians, 
Turks, and other nations. yiap7ra, from dp.7rds, a cloak. 
o-rptppeVoi/, from arpicpco or orp 77 $ci)=o-rpe<p<u. The meaning 
of the expression here is, that the shepherd throws his

over in front, the rest behind, in a careless manner.

Geog., p. 201. yia>pa=yeOpa, dinner, dinner-time, mid-day. 

19. abpa^ev, from bpaacrto, a for e being quite common in

remarking that the ancients were ignorant of the various 
kinds of wind instruments now used in Greece ; or if they 
were not, they did not distinguish them. " We," he says, 
'■ are forced to name them, not only (fxkaovTrjs (flute), and

GENERAL EEMAKK. 

Throughout the whole of these notes, I have been much 
indebted to two works by English scholars, — the Lexicon 
of Liddel and Scott, and the Grammar of Jelf. The Lexi- 
con the student will find contains all the peculiar words 
and forms not mentioned in my notes ; for the writers 
have thoroughly studied the Lyric poets. This can be said 
of no other English Greek Lexicon that I know ; and, in- 
deed, Liddel and Scott have produced a work honourable 
to English scholarship, and accurate to a wonderful degree ; 
so much so, that, while it would be easy to point out hun- 
dreds of mistakes in other books of a similar nature, I 
know only of one or two in this (on aTvapevOv^rcos, M. 
Anton, and oIkoctltos in Babrius), and these very pardon- 
able. I have referred to Jelf "s first-rate Grammar rather 
than to the Porsons or Walckenaers who originally discussed 
the points of syntax alluded to. This saves space, and is 
really as profitable. 

Bergk's edition of the Lyric poets is the one to which 
my references are made.
